So I am trying to set up some application background processes to start on boot using systemd. It always gives me 127 exit code and I am not sure why. I thought that ExecStart
command is being executed in a wrong directory. So I added ExecStartPre
to output the current directory but it was not executed as well.
Here is my service file:
[Unit]
Description=Background processes
[Service]
Type=simple
User=epic
Environment=RAILS_ENV=production
WorkingDirectory=/home/epic/application
ExecStartPre=/bin/pwd > /home/epic/test.sys
ExecStart=/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194/bin/rake jobs:work
And the messages log shows when I execute systemctl start epic.service
:
Apr 24 05:13:01 application systemd[1]: epic.service: main process exited, code=exited, status=127
Apr 24 05:13:01 application systemd[1]: Unit epic.service entered failed state.
How can I know what is going wrong! I tried to execute the command in shell and it works (if it was in the right directory). The server is running on Fedora 15.
