1st: I installed a new CentOS 7 on VMWare as “minimal” which OS Version info is:
CentOS Linux 7 (Core)
Kernel 3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64 on an x86_64
2nd:
I install openjdk-1.7.0 with command:
yum install java-1.7.0-openjdk
which completed ok:
[root@localhost ~]# java -version
java version “1.7.0_65”
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (rhel-2.5.1.2.el7_0-x86_64 u65-b17)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.65-b04, mixed mode)
3rd:
wget openfire-3.9.3-1.i386.rpm from igniterealtime.org and install the package:
rpm -ivf openfire-3.9.3-1.i386.rpm
and the system tell me it’s ok just like these:
Preparing packages…
openfire-3.9.3-1.i386
Restarting openfire (via systemctl): [ OK ]
But when I check the service status I found it didn’t work.
[root@localhost ~]# service openfire status -l
openfire is not running
[root@localhost ~]# service openfire start
Starting openfire (via systemctl): Job for openfire.service failed. See ‘systemctl status openfire.service’ and ‘journalctl -xn’ for details.

I did nothing besides the commands I wrote. So what happened? Why Openfire " Failed to read PID from file /var/run/openfire.pid: Invalid argument"?
Thanks.
