airupnp.service not starting automatically after rebooting machine

[muammar]

Thanks for this handy tool. I added the airupnp.service following the instructions, and the content is below:

[Unit]
Description=AirUPnP bridge
After=network-online.target
Wants=network-online.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/software/airconnect/aircast-x86-64 -Z -x /software/airconnect/airupnp.xml
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=30

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

This is working perfectly if I do sudo systemctl restart airupnp.service. However, if I restart the computer (running Debian), the service does not start automatically. Have any of you experienced this issue? Thanks.

sudo systemctl enable airupnp.service?

You could also check the logs to see if it's failing: systemctl status airupnp.service or journalctl -r -u airupnp.service

sudo systemctl enable airupnp.service?

I did that, but that did not work.

I checked the log and I saw this;

@philippe44, above, you can see the .service file.

Best

Are you sure about the xml config file? You are starting aircast but you seem tu be willing to enable UPnP devices

[muammar]

My config.xml file is empty. But the problem seems to be that I have to enable the service manually each time I reboot. No idea why.

[philippe44]

It's likely something with systemd on your system, I don't know. You can always try w/o a config file if it is empty, but I don't see that changing anything
