OS is correct in info page.
Log is written BOTH in squeezebox/scanner and in syslog, so no access
issues. the service file looks fine.

[Unit]
Description=Logitech Media Server
# Ensures LMS is shutdown before network. And that the network service
# has at least been started.
After=network.target
# Make LMS wait for network-online.target (if it gets started).
# See notes below.
After=network-online.target
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Some notes on networking targets:
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# We leave it to the user to specify 'Wants=network-online.target' if
he
# chooses, because it may not suit all users. But we specify
# 'After=network-online.target' because the SysV init script has
# essentially behaved that way by virtue of the 'Required-Start: $all'
# stanza included within it.
# This is also the approach taken in Debian's & Ubuntu's implementation
# of 'rc.local.service'.
#
# On systemd >= 217, user might execute:
# 'systemctl add-wants logitechmediaserver.service
network-online.target'
#
# The effects of the 'After' and 'Wants' 'network-online' stanzas are
# very system dependent. They may or may not ensure that LMS starts up
# after network connections have been established, and they may or may
# not cause a delay in LMS start up.
#
# 'After=network-online.target' schedules LMS to start after the
network
# is fully up, whatever that may mean. But it is only effective if the
# 'network-online.target' is active and, even then, it is only
effective
# if the user's system has been, or can be, configured to wait
# appropriately for network connections to be established before
# reaching this target.
#
# 'Wants=network-online.target' would activate (pull in) that target.

# Note one consequence of this approach: LMS can now see environment

choose

# be relied upon in any way.
