With Type=simple, I think systemd expects the process not to fork. So either remove the -d option, or set Type=forking.
See https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.service.html#Options for more info.
Doh ... thats what happens when we blindly copy and paste ! I tried it and of course it works. Thank you for the prompt help (I take back what I said in #84 :-) )
PS: since I have your attention, it would be greatly appreciated if you can provide some hints for issue #84
Hello, when starting flicd as a service and using -d option, the flicd process exits and never starts successfully. Running the same command as in the service from a login prompt works, and flicd runs in background.
System Info: Linux rpi3b+ 4.14.98-v7+ armv7l GNU/Linux
Here are the various extra-enabled logs, for unknown reason flicd (main process) runs and then immediately receives a SIGTERM from somewhere ! When using a service that does NOT use the -d option, flicd runs OK. I'd really appreciate some pointers to continue debugging this.
