[systemd-devel] Unable to get Systemd to work with Phoenix/Elixir Exrm Release

[Michael Chavez]

Hi Andrei,

That worked, thank you so much!

Here is the final of  the hello-phoenix.service:
[Unit]
Description=hello-phoenix service

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/home/hello-phoenix/app/bin
ExecStart=/home/hello-phoenix/app/bin/hello_phoenix foreground
Environment=MIX_ENV=prod PORT=8888
Restart=always
StandardOutput=syslog
StandardError=syslog
SyslogIdentifier=hello-phoenix
User=hello-phoenix

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Thank you and everyone for your insights:)

Cheers,
Michael
