    Here is what we use on RHEL, assumes you are using mysql

    Create a startup script 

    /etc/systemd/system/ccollab.service

     

    [Unit]
    Description=Collaborator_Startup
    After=mysql.service

    [Service]
    Type=oneshot
    ExecStart=<path to your installation>/ccollab-server start
    ExecStop=<path to your installation>/ccollab-server stop
    User=<user account you run collaborator with>
    RemainAfterExit=yes

    [Install]
    WantedBy=multi-user.target

     

    Set permissions on script

    chmod 755 /etc/systemd/system/ccollab.service

     

    Enable the script

    systemctl enable ccollab.service

     

    Start the service

    systemctl start ccollab.service

    thank you so much, worked! I had some of those config settings but not all, I must have missed some that made the difference. Much appreciated!
