I just did a fresh install of Ignition 8.0.15 on CentOS 7.8.2003. It installed and I can access the Gatweay Web page. However the usual LInux service commands do not work. For example:

sudo service ignition status or sudo service ignition restart

The result is:  
ignition]$ sudo service ignition status  
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status ignition.service  
Unit ignition.service could not be found.

The last fresh install I did was 8.0.12…worked fine

Similarly, I use the following command to automatically restart Ignition upon reboot. It also fails.

sudo systemctl enable ignition  
Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory

In 8.0.14 we replaced the installer and as a result inadvertently changed the default service name - it’s `Ignition Gateway` not just `ignition` now. We’re probably going to revert that change, but that’s why it’s not working for now.

Yes, please change back. Will this be in 8.0.16? The service name is actually Ignition-Gateway

No, almost certainly won’t make it into 8.0.16. You can set up a symlink manually (which is what the old installer did) to create an `ignition.service` file that redirects to the `Ignition-Gateway` service.
