> Key: AMQ-9690
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-9690
> Project: ActiveMQ Classic
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Distribution
> Affects Versions: 6.1.6, 5.18.7
> Reporter: Rod Allen
> Priority: Minor
>
> when following instructions from
> [https://activemq.apache.org/components/classic/documentation/unix-shell-script]
> to create an init.d or systemd script, the function in the main activemq
> will create the data directory as the root user even if user is specified in
> the env/setenv and copied to /etc/default/activemq. This can be seen on any
> RHEL 8 like Linux such as Rocky Linux 8. Follow the steps in the linked
> article, delete the $ACTIVEMQ_DATA directory and the service script will
> create the directory as root but cannot be written to as the non-root user so
> the service cannot be stopped. Workaround of course is to just manually
> create the data directory.
