How to start Collaborator automatically after reboot on RHEL 7
Hello, I am fairly new to Linux and I need to set up our Collaborator instance to start automatically after a reboot. We are using Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.9 and I can't figure out how to achieve this, I see in the documentation:https://support.smartbear.com/collaborator/faq/how-to-configure-the-collaborator-server-to-start/ that there is a very brief mention on how to do this: The installation directory of the Collaborator server contains the "ccollab-server" file that can accept the usual "start" and "stop" commands. You can create a symbolic link to this file from your standard installation directory to force the server to start automatically upon system startup. I have tried creating this link in /etc/systemd/system but doesnt seem to do anything, I tried create a basic script that just calls /PathToApplication/ccollab-server start and that does not work. I tried creating a .service file which executes ccollab-server start. I can't find any helpful errors on the host and whenever I never see any entries in the collaborator error log, if i would at least get errors I could validate that my script was at least attempting to start the service. Is there anymore guidance on this other than what is in that documentation, a step by step guide or video? Thanks, feeling dumb!Solved1.1KViews0likes2Comments
