I followed instruction to install Lora app server under Ubuntu, after that, I tried to run
/etc/init.d/lora-app-server start
-bash: /etc/init.d/lora-app-server: No such file or directory
not sure if my installation was successful or not?
I suspect the following commands problem…it is same as Lora server. Any thoughts?

I’m not sure if you customized anything to your Ubuntu 14.04 installation, but by default I don’t think systemd is installed by default. Please see also the post-install.sh script which is executed after installation: https://github.com/brocaar/loraserver/blob/master/packaging/scripts/post-install.sh. Maybe that gives you some clues what is going wrong.
To use systemd, I recommend to use one of the following distributions which by default are using systemd:
Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
Debian 9 (Stretch)
I have tested installing the latest lora-app-server on Ubuntu 14.04 (clean install) and can not reproduce your issue.
