From the message in the log i'd say you did not save your changes or did not reload systemd 'systemd daemon-reload' as it says it does not find the user id which is the default placeholder.

Please be careful with the config values - while the fan control will try to shut itself off if the CPU get's too hot there are other components that might build up heat on low fan rates. Disks and PSU come to mind - disks have longer lifetime if they run cooler and the PSU will ramp up it's own fan if it gets too hot. So be sure to have proper monitoring in place
