systemd unit for OFBiz with Oracle JDK
Hello,
I'd like to create systemd unit for my OFBiz setup which run with JDK from Oracle.
However, I don't know how to set environment variables required (JAVA_HOME and PATH). How can I set them correctly?
I installed Oracle JDK to /opt/jdk1.8.0_201 and OFBiz to /opt/apache-ofbiz-16.11.05.
Kind regards, Bagas

Sorry if I'm still new to sysadmin world and asking such dumb question.
PS: I'm not sure whether I send this to legit-questionable email.

Re: systemd unit for OFBiz with Oracle JDK

Alright, so I write the following successful snippet:
[Unit]
Description=OFBiz service
Requires=nginx.service
After=nginx.service
[Service]
Type=simple
Environment="JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk1.8.0_201"
Environment="PATH=/opt/jdk1.8.0_201/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin"
User=ofbiz
WorkingDirectory=/opt/apache-ofbiz-16.11.05
ExecStart=/opt/apache-ofbiz-16.11.05/gradlew ofbiz
ExecStop=/opt/apache-ofbiz-16.11.05/gradlew 'ofbiz --shutdown'
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
From above snippet, I noted:
- when quoting arguments for Environment= option, anything inside quote
will be interpreted literally, so "$PATH:foo" will be just $PATH:foo.
Thus I have to hard-code PATH.
- systemd requires write out full path to the executable for ExecStart=
and ExecStop= (which is gradlew wrapper in OFBiz directory in this
case), although WorkingDirectory is set to path of OFBiz.
- since I installed JDK to /opt, JAVA_HOME is set to JDK path, in order
for OFBiz to function.

Hello,
I would say this is mostly a systemd question on how to setup environment
variables, not an OFBiz specific question.
The answer is probably not simple because there are many ways. One way for
example is to use Environment= or EnvironmentFile=. Alternatively you can
do something like systemctl edit ofbiz-service and then edit the conf file.
