[SOLVED] A init.d service script works with `service XX start` but not `systemctl start XX`

[lovetide]

I wrote a service script, and want to start tomcat6 when reboot. but it not work:

• the script file is /etc/init.d/tomcat6 (see the following)
• i've already chkconfig --add tomcat6, and no error occur, chkconfig --list can list tomcat6 service
• service tomcat6 start/stop can work properly
• but after reboot or systemctl start/stop tomcat6.service does not start tomcat6: the script was executed, and a file was created by the script
• SELinux is in Enforcing mode, but setenforce 0 does not help.
• Fedora 15, kernel 2.6.38.8-32.fc15.x86_64

There're no related log in /var/log/message, /var/log/audit/audit.log logged the following:

type=USER_CMD msg=audit(1308242653.204:369): user pid=3002 uid=0 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 subj=system_u:system_r:init_t:s0 msg='cwd="/" cmd="/usr/tomcat6/bin/startup.sh" terminal=? res=failed'

There's failed at the end of the first line, but I can't get more detail information from it.

am i missed something or something wrong in the script?

I don't know how to debug/verbose the output `systemctl start XX`, so I redirect some output in the script to a log file. finally, it's `sudo` failed with

sudo: sorry, you must have a tty to run sudo

it seems the internal mechanism between `service` and `systemctl` are different.

I take a look at the official tomcat6 init.d script, the offcial one use `/bin/su` or `/sbin/runuser`, not `sudo`. after I changed from `sudo` to `su`, the script works now.
