The question is: does a service written in this new method still needs the Lazarus service framework ? What is the signal sent to systemd wich informs it that the sevice has started (read man systemd.service (5) )? The same mechanism as the Lazarus service framework still applies ? I'm not yet ready to use either D-BUS messaging system nor socket based systemd start service mechanism. Thank you for any information. Antonio. Hi All. After a reading thru all documentation spread over there I succeeded to port an Initd service to the new systemd.. Both questions above got their answer: 1. simple is the right type 2. I didn't enven specify avy time out. The most important lesson learned is that the service program written using Lazarus and Fpc does not require ANY change. It woks as is provided that the launch command includes the -r parameter. systemctl enable MyService: OK systemctl start MyService: OK systemctl stop MyService: OK Service file in /etc/systemd/system with minimal options reboot the linux box and the service has been properly stopped and restarted after booting again. Nice and clear, thanks to all Antonio. --- L'absence de virus dans ce courrier électronique a été vérifiée par le logiciel antivirus Avast. https://www.avast.com/antivirus -- ___ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus

Did you see this? http://wiki.freepascal.org/Daemons_and_Services#Linux_.28Fedora.29 No but tons of similar pages on linus systemd architecture. But none give an answer to my questions but indirectly The service configuration file on the wiki paghe suggests thar the service program (because of the -r swith) uses the Lazarus service framework TimeourSec is mentioned but without explanation. I gonna run a try one of those days. Thanks anyway.
