Hi Arun,

Hortonworks DataFlow is a corporate offering. This issue management system is for the Apache NiFi project, which is open source and not owned or offered by any corporation. The issue you reported is a NiFi issue, so I have cleaned up the title and description here. Thanks for reporting this.

> Issue 1: When running the command "bin/nifi.sh install", it will setup the correct service file for you so that nifi will start on boot. When you look at the file, especially the "install" section:
> install() {
> SVC_NAME=nifi
> if [ "x$2" != "x" ] ; then
> SVC_NAME=$2
> fi
> SVC_FILE="/etc/init.d/$
> {SVC_NAME}"
> cp "$0" "${SVC_FILE}"
> sed -i s:NIFI_HOME=.*:NIFI_HOME="${NIFI_HOME}": "${SVC_FILE}"
> sed -i s:PROGNAME=.*:PROGNAME="${SCRIPT_NAME}": "${SVC_FILE}"
> rm -f "/etc/rc2.d/S65${SVC_NAME}
> "
> ln -s "/etc/init.d/$
> {SVC_NAME}" "/etc/rc2.d/S65${SVC_NAME}
> "
> rm -f "/etc/rc2.d/K65$
> {SVC_NAME}"
> ln -s "/etc/init.d/${SVC_NAME}
> " "/etc/rc2.d/K65$
> {SVC_NAME}"
> echo "Service ${SVC_NAME}
> installed"
> }
> The problem above is that the startup and shutdown files (the "S" and "K" files) are created in a directory "/etc/rc2.d", however this directory exists only on RHEL. On SUSE this directory is slightly different, /etc/init.d/rc2.d
> So when attempting to setup the services file (for bootup purposes), the above command fails on SUSE. Worse, no error checking is performed and it will actually print a successful message!
