Im have tried to install kibana oss 7.2.0 on a centos machine. I have installed it as a tar.gz file and then written a service to start it up. I have previously done the same to start Kibana oss 7.0.0 and it worked perfectly fine. But it's not working with using the same procedure for Kibana oss 7.2.0.

Its giving the following log always:

sudo service kibana status

Please let me know how to fix this

What do the actual Kibana logs show? Why don't you use an RPM/DEB that includes the service files?
