Hi,

I made an init script(hybris.service) for hybris on RHEL7 under /usr/lib/systemd/system
------------------------------------------------------------------
[Unit]
Description=Hybris Server
After=syslog.target network.target remote-fs.target nss-lookup.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/app/hybris5.4/hybris/bin/platform/hybrisserver.sh start
ExecStop=/app/hybris5.4/hybris/bin/platform/hybrisserver.sh stop
SuccessExitStatus=143
Type=simple
User=hybrisadmin
Group=hybrisadmin

TimeoutSec=300

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
-------------------------------------------------------------------
When I execute the script it runs successfully and /var/log/messages are updated with the
May 20 12:46:57 xxxxxxxx systemd: Stopped Hybris Server
message but hybris server does not stop.
Please help me with the resolution/next steps.

Thanks in advance...!!!!

I am a newbie..any help will be greatly appreciated

Verify the command Systemd is calling to do the stop actually works. (What you saw in the log says Systemd worked but that doesn't guarantee the command it called worked.)

Run "/app/hybris5.4/hybris/bin/platform/hybrisserver.sh stop" at command line and see what it says.

Also be sure to run "systemctl status -l hybris" to see what the logging is showing when you ran the "systemctl stop hybris".

I'm also curious why you have:
SuccessExitStatus=143
Typically a non-zero exit status is a failure rather than a success. It may be systemd treated the stop as successful because the command it is calling resulted in a 143 exit status.

When you run "/app/hybris5.4/hybris/bin/platform/hybrisserver.sh stop" at command line by itself type "echo $?" after it finishes and before you do anything else to see what its exit status was.


Note:
/var/log/messages still has logging but the Systemd expects use of above status command to see the logs (or use of the journalctl command).

Also this Systemd "unit" replaces the old SystemV "init" scripts so what you have isn't technically an "init" script. The init scripts (some still exist in RHEL7) are in /etc/init.d and linked to from /etc/rc?.d directories. However, the intent is that over time all the init scripts will go away in favor of Systemd "unit" files like the one you created.
