Hi, i am a new user. I dont know how to set tesla-apiscraper for auto start after debian boot. I hope someone can help me. Thanks. I had test set a systemd service but it show Error

root@Debian:~# sudo systemctl status tesla.service

• tesla.service - Tesla Service Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/tesla.service; enabled; vendor preset: en Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Fri 2019-09-13 06:09:06 UTC; 29s ago Process: 1174 ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 apiscraper.py (code=exited, status=1/ Main PID: 1174 (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)

Sep 13 06:09:05 Debian systemd[1]: Started Tesla Service.

my service is:

[Unit] Description=Tesla Service After=multi-user.target

[Service] Type=idle WorkingDirectory=/tesla-apiscraper ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 apiscraper.py

[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

Does the Service work if you start it manually?

This one works for me on a debian based distro (armbian):

[Unit]
Description=Tesla Api Scraper
After=network.target
[Service]
Type=simple
User=bananapi
Group=bananapi
ExecStart=python3 /home/bananapi/tesla-apiscraper/apiscraper.py
Restart=always
Users=bananapi
WorkingDirectory=/home/bananapi/tesla-apiscraper
StandardOutput=syslog
StandardError=syslog
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Be careful to start it AFTER influxdb has started or it will exit immediately.
