I'm trying to set up a new service under Fedora 15. I've created the
following service unit file in /usr/local/etc/svscan.service:
----
[Unit]
Description=Daemontools svscan
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/svscanboot
Restart=on-abort
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
----
Basically, I just want to run /usr/local/bin/svscanboot at startup and
rerun it if it dies.
I try to enable it with:
systemctl enable /usr/local/etc/svscan.service
and I get:
Unit name /usr/local/etc/svscan.service is not a valid unit name.
Cannot install unit /usr/local/etc/svscan.service: Invalid argument
Obviously it's not expecting a pathname on the command line, so how am
I supposed to tell systemd that svscan.service is associated with
/usr/local/etc/svscan.service?
I think the end result of the enable would be to create a symlink, so
I manualy create one:
ln -s /usr/local/etc/svscan.service /etc/systemd/system
And try to start it:
systemctl start svscan.service
Which results in:
Failed to issue method call: Unit svscan.service failed to load: No such file
or directory. See system logs and 'systemctl status' for details.
But:
systemctl status
gives:
Too few arguments.
And:
systemctl status svscan.service
gives:
svscan.service
Loaded: error
Active: inactive (dead)
Which tells me nothing useful, and nothing is logged in /var/log.
I've spent way too much time reading man pages and googling and not
getting anywhere.
