Hello,
Not sure if this is the right topic to ask but I got some questions.
Just installed a new Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS on some new hardware.
The old server is also Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS, same as the new server.
The reason to install a new server is also because I notice some problems due migrating.
Before I always migrated my server to new version which also brings some changes.
Now I installed Subversion and notice it doesn’t run on it’s own.
On the old server I have this process running:
:/# systemctl status svnserve
● svnserve.service - LSB: Start svnserve
Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/svnserve; generated)
Active: active (running) since Wed 2025-06-04 07:30:03 CEST; 5 days ago
Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)
Tasks: 1 (limit: 6344)
Memory: 2.0M (peak: 7.7M swap: 872.0K swap peak: 872.0K)
CPU: 3.945s
CGroup: /system.slice/svnserve.service
└─1078 /usr/bin/svnserve -d -r /home/svn-repos
As you can read, it has the /etc/init.d/svnserve which I do not have on the new server.
I just copied this file from the old to the new server and is working now.
But I just wonder if this would be the correct way to solve this problem?
I would have expected a service called svnserve.service but could not find any.
Did I miss something or do I need to install addition packages with subversion?
BTW … not related to the above but both servers are managed with Ubuntu Pro and both have different Kernels, not sure why either (because of hardware?).
Old says: Welcome to Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 6.8.0-60-generic x86_64)
New says: Welcome to Ubuntu 24.04.2 LTS (GNU/Linux 6.11.0-26-generic x86_64)
Thanks,
