Hello @ahujarishab 

As i checked internally that usage of systemd, in the newer versions of Replicate, is enforced by design
Any new/existing docker images should have pre-installed systemd in order to use the latest replicate versions.

Hope it helps.

Hello @ahujarishab ,

%prein is a pre-installation script that's part of the RPM package.
These scripts are executed before the package files are installed.
The scriptlet runs and checks for the presence of systemctl.

So ,  as @sureshkumar mentioned ,  please make sure systemd is installed in your server

I am trying to install this in docker, generally the systemd is preloaded with the hosts but with docker I dont think that is a practice to have it installed.

Hello @ahujarishab 

even if you are installing it on Docker . there may be sone pre installed RPM required and if they are not there then you would not be able to installer Qlik replicate on Dockers.

And systemctl is like process manager on window which attached process to the os
