My original post was too harsh. My requests for help haven't been very clear. Thanks to hints and questions here, I took the time to do a little scarier experimentation with my live Apache installation and now have a service file that seems to work. In it I have added documentation to refresh tired and failing memories: $ cat apache2.service # Debian 10 installation instructions: # # See systemd documentation in: # # man systemd.unit # man systemd.service # # Place a copy of this file into: # /etc/systemd/system/ # # After creating or modifying any unit files, we must tell systemd # that we want it to look for new things: # # # systemctl daemon-reload # # Our new service should be recognized at this point, but it won't run # yet. We need to do two more things. First, tell systemd to enable # it, so that it will start every time we boot: # # # systemctl enable apache2.service # # Second, start it now: # # # systemctl start apache2.service # # Note that you don't get feedback from this command, because all it # does it send a message to systemd telling it to start your # service. The command you typed doesn't hang around to see what # happens next. You may use systemctl status myservice.service (or # systemctl status myservice) to check on your service, to make sure # it seems OK. # # # systemctl status apache2.service # # systemctl status apache2 # # Also note that systemctl status myservice gives more information if # you run it as root, compared to running it as a normal user.
