Hi,
I’m having issues with auto starting the AWS Portal services during boot
I installed the Deadline Repository 10.4.0.8 on Rocky Linux 9.4
The database service, the client, the RCS and the webservice are running fine. I can see that those processes are running and I can connect a Windows client to the repository.
I then proceeded to install the AWS Portal Link and AWS Portel Asset server. The installation completed correctly but after reboot the awsportallink is not running
During my tests, I changed the way the awsportallink service starts
I removed the symbolic links from /etc/rc0.d, /etc/rc1.d, /etc/rc2.d… and I created a systemd unit file :
sudo nano /etc/systemd/system/awsportallinkservice.service
containing :
[Unit]
Description=AWSPortalLink startup script
After=network.target local-fs.target remote-fs.target
Requires=network.target local-fs.target remote-fs.target
[Service]
Type=forking
ExecStart=/etc/init.d/awsportallinkservice start
ExecStop=/etc/init.d/awsportallinkservice stop
User=root
Group=root
Restart=on-failure
StandardOutput=journal
StandardError=journal
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
I installed this unit file :
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable awsportallinkservice.service
and rebooted
(BTW I did the same thing for the awsportalassetservershellscript )
After rebooting :
sudo service --status-all :
The AWSPortalAssetServer Service is not currently running.
The AWSPortalLink Service is not currently running.
The MongoDB Service For Deadline 10 is running with PID 950.
Looking at the systemd journal logs I see :

2024-10-25 22:02:07: 'status' operation finished with exit code '3'.
Checking the status of the service:
sudo service awsportallinkservice status
The AWSPortalLink Service is not currently running.
However, I can start it doing :
sudo service awsportallinkservice start
confirmed with :
sudo service awsportallinkservice status
The AWSPortalLink Service is running with PID 3157.
And I can see in top that a python process with PID 3157 is running
In summary, everything seems to work, except the AWS services do not start during boot. What should I do to make it start those services automatically ?
