New 7.2.1 install on linux; "permission denied" on exec?
I'm attempting to install Solr 7.2.1 on linux. Following instructions at https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_2/taking-solr-to-production.html#taking-solr-to-production I install cd /home/test/ wget http://apache.osuosl.org/lucene/solr/7.2.1/solr-7.2.1.tgz tar zxvf ./solr-7.2.1.tgz id solr; grep solr /etc/passwd uid=485(solr) gid=482(solr) groups=482(solr),100(users) solr:x:485:482::/var/solr:/bin/sh cd /home/test/solr-7.2.1 ./bin/install_solr_service.sh \ /home/test/solr-7.2.1.tgz \ -n \ -i /opt/solr \ -d /var/solr \ -s solr \ -u solr \ -p chown -R solr:solr /opt/solr cat /etc/default/solr.in.sh | egrep -v "^$|^#" SOLR_PID_DIR="/var/solr" SOLR_HOME="/var/solr/data" LOG4J_PROPS="/var/solr/log4j.properties" SOLR_LOGS_DIR="/var/solr/logs" SOLR_PORT="" On exec, it fails to start due to permissions systemctl daemon-reload systemctl start solr Job for solr.service failed because the control process exited with error code.

I managed to 'fix' the problem. rm -f /etc/init.d/solr and replace it with a systemd unit file, /etc/systemd/system/solr.service That seems to do the trick: ps aux | grep solr solr 35445 181 1.6 4047996 267116 ? Sl 04:57 0:11 java -server -Xms512m -Xmx51 ... and all's good. WHY that works, that's still an open question for me ...
