How to enable service to run on boot in Ubuntu 18.04?
ubuntu services boot reboot service
Best way to manage services is to use systemctl
command which have fairly intuitive interface. This command might
be available on different distributions or versions of
Ubuntu too. To enable service to start on system boot,
well You guess it! Use enable
sub-command with
service name:
Enabling service
sudo systemctl enable <serviceName>
In case of issues with above command you can try also longer form:
sudo systemctl enable <serviceName>.service
For example to enable elasticsearch service, use:
sudo systemctl enable elasticsearch
Or in extended form:
sudo systemctl enable elasticsearch.service
Thats it! So easy :) See also how to list services to get name of service.
