Hi!
I wrote a simple service that did not start after boot. The joural
message was:
REST-server.service: Job REST-server.service/start failed with result
'dependency'.
Wouldn’t it be helpful to log WHICH dependency failed? As I started
the server meanwhile that information isn’t available any more (it seems).
It is logged in the journal, one line above the message you mention. It
is merely not tagged with _SYSTEMD_UNIT= for 'systemctl status' to find it.
