ColdFusion 2023 - how to get systemd to start ColdFusion on server reboot

I ran ./cf-init-run.sh install which created /etc/systemd/system/cf2023.service and created the symlink to run it but it doesn't work

 

cf2023.service has the following which doesn't seem right (sysinit doesn't exist)

 

[Unit]
Description=Adobe ColdFusion 2023
After=multi-user.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/appl/ColdFusion2023/cfusion/bin/../bin/sysinit start
ExecStop=/appl/ColdFusion2023/cfusion/bin/../bin/sysinit stop
RemainAfterExit=yes

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

 

I tried changing "sysinit" to "coldfusion" but that didn't work either

 

Has anyone gotten this to work? Or is there a diffferent way I should get ColdFusion to start on reboot?


Thanks!
