Thanks.

Something is broken here. I can manually start a service, but systemd
can't/won't automatically start it at boot. But the kicker is, there
are no logs anywhere until I manually start it.

The service was previously [trying to] starting at boot, but it failed
to start because systemd seems to lie about when the network is
available. So I added additional After= and Wants=, and now no service
and no logs.

I really don't get this tool and why it hides so much information from people.
