Using FIWARE to start Cygnus as a Service in IoT Solution

0 votes

While creating a solution I tried starting cygnus using RPMs on fiware image CentOS-7-x64 but I am unable to start it as a service, Here is my logs:

[centos@cygnus-mongo conf]$ sudo service cygnus start
Starting cygnus (via systemctl):  Job for cygnus.service failed. See 'systemctl status cygnus.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
                                                           [FAILED]

Actually the directory /var/run/cygnus was not created, is it going to be created automatically?

Here is my configuration files:

agent_mongo.conf

cygnusagent.sources = http-source
cygnusagent.sinks = mongo-sink 
cygnusagent.channels = mongo-channel 

#=============================================

cygnusagent.channels.mongo-channel.transactionCapacity = 100

cygnus_instance_mongo.conf :

# to run cygnus in a privileged port (<1024)
CYGNUS_USER=cygnus

# Where is the config folder

# Which is the config file
CONFIG_FILE=/usr/cygnus/conf/agent_mongo.conf

# Name of the agent. The name of the agent is not trivial, since it is the base for the Flume parameters 
# naming conventions, e.g. it appears in .sources.http-source.channels=...
AGENT_NAME=cygnusagent

# Name of the logfile located at /var/log/cygnus. It is important to put the extension '.log' in order to the log rotation works properly
LOGFILE_NAME=cygnus.log

# Administration port. Must be unique per instance
ADMIN_PORT=8081

# Polling interval (seconds) for the configuration reloading
POLLING_INTERVAL=30

Edit: add logs after lunching cygnus as a standalone application:

Cygnus is supposed to create /var/run/cygnus/ when started. You can the path specification, and creation and PID assignement.

I'm wondering which are the permissions of your /var/run... Maybe they are too restrictive for the cygnus user.

Anyway, are you able to run Cygnus as a standalone application (not as a service) with no errors? I mean, executing this command:

$ /usr/cygnus/bin/cygnus-flume-ng agent --conf /usr/cygnus/conf -f /usr/cygnus/conf/agent_mongo.conf -n cygnusagent -Dflume.root.logger=INFO,console
