Hello,
In my Ubuntu server I can see 2 services. manticore and manticore.service.
It says manticore is stand alone. Is there one that I am supposed to use vs the other? manticore.service seems to work fine for me.
Thanks,
Laurent
How do I reproduce this? Here’s what I see in Ubuntu Jammy:
root@810693a16158:/# systemctl list-units --type=service --all|grep manticore
manticore.service loaded active running Manticore Search Engine
root@810693a16158:/#
Yes me too! I noticed the stand alone didn’t work fully for me.
Here is my manticore (Fast standalone full-text SQL search engine):

Here is my manticore (Fast standalone full-text SQL search engine):
It looks like an old Sphinx init script which you get when you do apt install sphinxsearch in Debian Buster and then adapt it to Manticore. Is it the case? If so, why did you do it if Manticore comes with its own systemd unit? If not, where did you get the package which provides this file?
