Please guide. I think the "file:" method is not supported with your version of systemd. See `man systemd.exec' for more info. You could use a shell script to work around this limitation, something like --%<--- #!/bin/bash exec java -jar old2-wsb-smart-response-0.0.2-SNAPSHOT.jar >> /var/log/smartresponseserviceoutput.log 2>> /var/log/smartresponseserviceerror.log --%<--- Regards, Simon
