I am trying to set up airflow using systemd. Normally when I do it using screens everything works perfectly. But when I start the service service airflow-worker start I get the following error.
Mar 02 08:52:57 IP systemd[1]: Started Airflow celery worker daemon.

Following is the sequence in which I start the service:
service airflow-webserver start
service airflow-worker start
service airflow-scheduler start
service airflow-flower start
I am referring to the following documentation. http://site.clairvoyantsoft.com/installing-and-configuring-apache-airflow/
P.S: rabbitmq and Postgres are running fine in the background.
I was able to solve my issue by doing the following:
Created a file at vim /etc/sysconfig/airflow
Added environment variable
AIRFLOW_CONFIG=/home/ubuntu/airflow/airflow.cfg
AIRFLOW_HOME=/home/ubuntu/airflow
PATH=/home/ubuntu/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/home/ubuntu/.local/bin/
