Service starting failed - Failed to start SYSV

Question

My objective is to start a personal daemon called gobatch. gobatch is stored into /usr/sbin/gobatch (during gobatch is just an infinite loop).

When I use /etc/init.d/gobatch start I got this error:

janv. 08 14:39:03 ubuntu systemd[1]: Failed to start SYSV: ChilliSpot is an open source captive portal.

/usr/sbin/gobatch

#! /bin/bash

while true;
do

done

/etc/init.d/gobatch:

#!/bin/sh
#### BEGIN INIT INFO

case "$1" in

       start_daemon -p $PIDFILE $DAEMON 
       log_end_msg $? 
       ;;

      killproc -p $PIDFILE $DAEMON 
      RETVAL=$? 
      [ $RETVAL -eq 0 ] && [ -e "$PIDFILE" ] && rm -f $PIDFILE 
      log_end_msg $RETVAL 
      ;;

         $0 stop 
         $0 start 
         ;; 
esac 
exit 0

Can you help me to fix this problem?

Thank's a lot!

Why are you using `sysv` style init script, why not use `systemd` and write your service script. — iamauser, Jan 08 '18 at 20:49
Because I follewed a tuto and the author use `sysv` I guess. I don't know what is `systemd`. My script must be a daemon, with `systemd` it is possible? — Royce, Jan 08 '18 at 20:55
