Hi Night Librarian, Before you begin just make sure the handle server is down and just copy and paste the text you see in red below into the terminal and do the other steps to enable the service and start it. Also, make sure the owner and the group permissions on the dspace and the handle-server folders ( ls -ld /opt/dspace /opt/dspace/handle-server/ ) match the user you run the tomcat9 service with in your server ( cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/tomcat9.service ).
1) sudo -i 2) cat << EOF > /usr/lib/systemd/system/handle-server.service [Unit] Description=Handle Service After=network.target tomcat9.service [Service] Type=oneshot RemainAfterExit=yes ExecStart=/opt/dspace/bin/start-handle-server ExecStop=/bin/kill \$MAINPID User=tomcat Group=tomcat [Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target EOF 2) systemctl daemon-reload 3) systemctl enable handle-server.service 4) systemctl start handle-server.service 5) systemctl status handle-server.service *** If you succussed in running the service manually as in step 4 above then the handle service should be started during the boot time. Check /opt/dspace/handle-server/logs/error.log-* for any hints about what's going on. Hoe it helps. BR, Mo.
