Ubuntu CLI Install - Failed to start deluged.service

[usernameforgotten]

Looking to get some input on an issue I'm running into setting up Deluge via CLI on an Ubuntu Server 24.04.1. I installed via "apt install deluged", and after that went through the initial steps in this guide to set up a user, create systemd service file, and attempt to start Deluge. However, when I run "systemctl status deluged", I get the below:

Code: Select all

This is a pretty new installation of Ubuntu, so not much else on the machine. Any recommendations are welcome!

You might do well to check out our guide for systemd...a lot of times other guides are outdated or incorrect.

If you still can't get it running properly, you might try enabling logging with the -l and -L arguments or running your ExecStart line as that user and see what it says.

If you can't find the issue, then please post logs of your attempt to run it with the errors.

If you're unfamiliar with the logging cli arguments, you can find more details and usage here https://man.archlinux.org/man/deluged.1.en
