Configure JBoss EAP 6.x as Service on RHEL 7

[thomas2008ch]

Hi,

Recently I update the LINUX from RHEL6 to RHEL7.7. But I have to use the EAP6.4.22. But I have problem by starting the Jboss as a service. I've heard the RHEL7 works different than RHEL6. I've googled but till now couldn't find any helpful information.

Has someone the same problem like me and have some idea?

Many thanks!

Further describtion:

Here below is my situation and what I did:

After the installation of Jboss EAP 6 (RPM text installation), there is the file /etc/init.d/jbossas

I enable this as service with 'chkconfig jbossas on'. Then I create a file called '/usr/lib/systemd/system/eap6-jbossas-standalone.service' and it looks as follow:

[Unit] Description=JBoss EAP Systemctl script After=NetworkManager.service

[Service] Type=forking ExecStart=/etc/init.d/jbossas start ExecStop=/etc/init.d/jbossas stop PIDFile=/var/run/jbossas/jbossas-standalone.pid

I start the jboss with 'systemctl start eap6-jbossas-standalone'. The jboss can be started but the cursor doesn't return. I have to use the ctrl+c to get the cursor.

Then I try to stop the jboss with 'systemctl stop eap6-jbossas-standalone' but the jboss can not be stopped. As I check its status with 'systemctl status eap6-jbossas-standalone -l' I got following messages: ...

systemctl status eap6-jbossas-standalone -l

What could be the reason?
