In Fedora terms, jenkins is a so called legacy service. It does not provide a 
service file, but an old style System V init script.
That should be recognized by systemd, but for doing so, AFAIK it needs a 
package called initscripts. Maybe that one is missing
on your system?

hi!

i have installed jenkins lts according to the installation instructions @ 
https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/installing/linux/#fedora but when i try to 
start the service it fails:

# systemctl start jenkins
Failed to start jenkins.service: Unit jenkins.service not found.

as it turns out the rpm does not contain the jenkins.service file:

# dnf repoquery --list jenkins
/etc/init.d/jenkins
/etc/logrotate.d/jenkins
/etc/sysconfig/jenkins
/etc/yum.repos.d/jenkins.repo
/usr/lib/jenkins
/usr/lib/jenkins/jenkins.war
/usr/sbin/rcjenkins
/var/cache/jenkins
/var/lib/jenkins
/var/log/jenkins
/etc/init.d/jenkins
/etc/logrotate.d/jenkins
/etc/sysconfig/jenkins
/etc/yum.repos.d/jenkins.repo
/usr/lib/jenkins
/usr/lib/jenkins/jenkins.war
/usr/sbin/rcjenkins
/var/lib/jenkins
/var/log/jenkins
/etc/init.d/jenkins
/etc/logrotate.d/jenkins
/etc/sysconfig/jenkins
/usr/lib/jenkins
/usr/lib/jenkins/jenkins.war
/usr/sbin/rcjenkins
/var/cache/jenkins
/var/lib/jenkins
/var/log/jenkins

is this file missing or am i supposed to provide one myself?

regards
