[Bug 1819721] Re: tomcat8 SRU for bionic uses systemd service instead of init scripts
@Sebastian (slovdahl) Well, you have customized init.d scripts and added local features to it, which is not something that Ubuntu can know about, nor has to support. There are obvious ways how you can continue to support those things in an automated manner. For example, you can dpkg-divert systemd units to prevent them from being used and init.d scripts used instead. Also, one can write a systemd generator that would parse the /etc/default/tomcat8 and /etc/default/tomcat8.local and produce appropriate override (i.e. /run/systemd/system/tomcat8.service to override everything, or only just /run/systemd/system/tomcat8.service.d/generator.conf) Imho, it would be nice to continue support the older /etc/default/tomcat8 settings as much as possible. @slovdahl can you please share your modifications to the init.d script and what sort of things you are setting in both /etc/default/tomcat8 and tomcat8.local? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1819721 Title: tomcat8 SRU for bionic uses systemd service instead of init scripts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tomcat8/+bug/1819721/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1819721] Re: tomcat8 SRU for bionic uses systemd service instead of init scripts
Tiago,
Thank you for helping out!
Unfortunately, that doesn't work out of the box in our case. The reason
is how our tomcat8.local currently is used. We have some sane defaults
in /etc/default/tomcat8 that Puppet manages, and use
/etc/default/tomcat8.local to make it possible to override it locally
like this:
$ cat /etc/default/tomcat8.local
JAVA_OPTS="${JAVA_OPTS} -Xmx3g"
It seems like systemd doesn't like that line at all, tomcat fails to
start after creating an override.conf as you suggested:
$ sudo systemctl status tomcat8
● tomcat8.service - Apache Tomcat 8.5 Web Application Server
Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/tomcat8.service; enabled; vendor preset:

'exit-code'.
There are probably other ways to achieve what we currently do with
tomcat8.local using systemd, but having to convert all our currently deployed
/etc/default/tomcat8.local files would require a lot of manual work. In
addition to that, we might have to introduce a new Puppet class for Ubuntu
18.04 + Tomcat 8 and use that one for the servers that have an updated Tomcat
8, and let the old one be used on all servers without an updated Tomcat 8.
I'm still of the opinion that this kind of change in the middle of an
LTS cycle is far too intrusive.

Sebastian, thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. For a systemd service you can easily override it and to modify/add options. As an example, you should be able to achieve a similar result to what you describe by using: /etc/systemd/system/tomcat.service.d# cat override.conf [Service] EnvironmentFile=-/etc/default/tomcat8.local Please see https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.exec.html#EnvironmentFile= for a description on the expected file format.

[Bug 1819721] Re: tomcat8 SRU for bionic uses systemd service instead of init scripts
This change has the potential to be a showstopper in some cases. We're managing Tomcat on a lot of servers using Puppet. Puppet currently installs slightly modified /etc/init.d/tomcat8 and /etc/default/tomcat8 files. The changed init.d file adds support for e.g. reading a /etc/default/tomcat8.local file if it exists (in addition to /etc/default/tomcat8), making it possible to make temporary and/or local changes to certain environment variables used during Tomcat startup without having to add that change to Puppet as well. After updating to Tomcat 8.5.39-1ubuntu1~18.04 currently in proposed, this override no longer works, I guess because /etc/init.d/tomcat8 isn't used at all any more. Making these kind of intrusive changes one year after an LTS release clearly damages the trust users have in Ubuntu LTS releases being stable across its lifetime. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1819721 Title: tomcat8 SRU for bionic uses systemd service instead of init scripts To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tomcat8/+bug/1819721/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
