Apologies for dredging this up but I'm having some problems with this.
Any ideas much appreciated.
Ii have been forced to move from a version of centOS the used the old
/etc/rc.d/init.d
way of doing things to a new version of CentOS that uses systemd. The
hosts can't or won't help because I'm using a 'non-standard setup'
Basically I'm using tomcat standalone on port 80 to serve up my site.
I use jsvc with a start/stop script in /etc/rc.d/init.d with symbolic
links in rc2.d, rc3.d. rc4.d and rc5.d This has been working
faultlessly for nearly 4 years.
I have installed Tomcat, Java and all required resources on the new
server, I have dulpicated the configuration in /etc but needless to
say when I restart the server Tomcat doesn't start
Starting from the command line as root with /etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat7
works as it has always done and starts tomcat as root then switches to
an unprivileged, no login user (tomcat)
I followed your instructions and came up with the following
# touch /etc/systemd/system/tomcat.service
# nano /etc/systemd/system/tomcat.service
tomcat.service looks like this
[Unit]
Description=The Jakarta Apache/Tomcat Server
After=network.target
[Service]

ExecStart=/etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat7 start
ExecStop=/etc/rc.d/init.d/tomcat7 stop

Job for tomcat.service failed because the control process exited with
error code. See "systemctl status tomcat.service" and "journalctl -xe"
