Qlik Replicate installation on Linux 9.7 Error: failed to install areplicate as a service, areplicate will not be run

john_wang — Mon, 20 Apr 2026 08:41:36 GMT

Installing Qlik Replicate 2025.5 and 2025.11 GA versions on Linux 9.7, an error may occur during installation or when attempting to start the services.

This issue is typically observed when the installation is performed using a different account than the one intended to run the services.

For example, installing Qlik Replicate with the account apsup while specifying qlik as the service account:

sudo user=qlik group=qlik verbose=true rpm -ivh --prefix /opt areplicate-2025.11.0-164.x86_64.rpm

A typical error message is:

arep.sh: created /opt/attunity/replicate/bin/areplicate
arep.sh: created /etc/systemd/system/areplicate.service
systemctl daemon-reload failed
failed to install areplicate as a service, areplicate will not be run
warning: %posttrans(areplicate-2025.11.0-164.x86_64) scriptlet failed, exit status 9
