Hi,

I have followed the steps on this article https://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/kb/linux-init-script.html to create the linux init script for AEM. But when I start the service, it shows the following error message:

Jul 20 03:31:32 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting SYSV: This service manages the Adobe Experience Manager java process....
Jul 20 03:31:32 localhost.localdomain su[8065]: (to admin) root on none
Jul 20 03:31:32 localhost.localdomain aem6[8063]: Starting AEM services: Last login: Wed Jul 20 03:30:24 EDT 2016
Jul 20 03:31:32 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: PID file /crx-quickstart/conf/aem.pid not readable (yet?) after start.
Jul 20 03:31:32 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Failed to start SYSV: This service manages the Adobe Experience Manager java process..
Jul 20 03:31:32 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Unit aem6.service entered failed state.
Jul 20 03:31:32 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: aem6.service failed.


May I know what is the cause of this error. I can start the AEM when I use the start script directly /crx-quickstart/bin/start.

Thanks in advance,

Hi

Which Linux version are you working on ?

The article your are referring here is very old article, where init.d was in use. Currently System.d has replaced init.d.

Thanks, I am using Redhat 7.2, is it must use system.d instead of init.d?

 

It has "systemd".

Reference Link:- https://access.redhat.com/articles/754933

//Although the systemd process replaces the init process (quite literally, /sbin/init is now a symbolic link to /usr/lib/systemd/systemd) for starting services at boot time
