Are you giving the full path to the startup script in the properties dialog?
You shouldn't be.  Just put "tnc-startup.kpc3" in there.  Full pathnames
aren't needed; xastir will only look in the "share/xastir/config" 
directory of the install prefix (which defaults to "/usr/local").

If you installed xastir from the Ubuntu package, it didn't put things in
/usr/local/share, it put them in /usr/share.  In this case, the install
prefix was "/usr" instead.  You probably don't even have a 
/usr/local/share/xastir directory.
