Used sha512sums because the download server has them readily available

Dear maintainer, the current download URL is incorrect (404) and I can't update my activemq installation. Please update the URL. I've written this patch for your, feel free to apply it, or to modify it as you wish.

Thank you very much, Luca

The service file seems to be looking in the wrong place for the executable. I get the following error when starting the service:

activemq.service: Failed to execute command: No such file or directory
activemq.service: Failed at step EXEC spawning /opt/activemq/bin/activemq: No such file or directory

Digging in a little bit, I see an executable at the following paths

/opt/activemq/current/bin/activemq
/opt/activemq/apache-activemq-5.15.10/bin/activemq

current is a symlink to apache-activemq-5.15.10 so this is the same executable

Updated

The current service-file is broken(?). The command in ExecStart is blocking (/usr/bin/java -jar /opt/activemq/bin/activemq.jar start). As a result, the service does not start by timeout:

# systemctl start activemq
Job for activemq.service failed because a timeout was exceeded.

in status/journalctl:

activemq.service: start operation timed out. Terminating.
...
activemq.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=143/n/a
activemq.service: Failed with result 'timeout'.

Could you perhaps also add the files in /opt/activemq/conf to the backup field of the PKGBUILD, to avoid changes in activemq.xml being overwritten on update?

Thanks for the update.

I think the current service file isn't right, tho: The type's still forking, but java -jar activemq.jar doesn't fork, nor does it write a PID file. As far as I understand both of these things come from the service wrapper used by the shell script (which exists to add all those service things like PID files and forking to Java apps). If you don't use this wrapper I think you have to use simple as type, and then systemd handles the forking and stuff itself. The PIDFile option isn't used in this case. The service file would look like this then:

[Unit]
Description=Messaging and Integration Patterns provider
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/java -jar /opt/activemq/bin/activemq.jar start

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

To use the forking type you need to use the activemq shell script which forks; in this case PIDFile must point to the actual PID file written by activemq (somewhere under /opt/activemq…/data I think).
