Is it Server or pmpserver? Make your mind up :-)

If this is a session bus service (which it is, because you put the .service
file in .../dbus-1/services and not .../dbus-1/system-services), the User
key is unnecessary and might cause problems - session services are always
run as you.

If you're not sure whether the dbus-daemon is loading the new service file,
you could log out and back in (but if you do that and it works, please reply
and say so - that'd be a bug).
