I just tested this and it works fine. Maybe your problem is that you
have your bootscript path set to "/usr/bin/local/" (which doesn't exist
by default) when you meant "/usr/local/bin" (which does exist)?
In any case this seems invalid.

I am creating a systemd service file like this:
######################################################################
bootscript=/usr/bin/local/luksautomount.sh
servicename=luksautomount
cat > $bootscript <<EOF
#!/usr/bin/env bash
echo "$bootscript ran at $(date)!" >> /tmp/it-works
EOF
chmod +x $bootscript
cat > /etc/systemd/system/$servicename.service <<EOF
[Service]
ExecStart=$bootscript
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
EOF
######################################################################
After successful creation of the service file and bash script that is
triggered with the service file, I am testing the service file with:
systemctl start $servicename
Syslog shows that service has been started, but the "/tmp/it-works" is
never created nor the line appended to an existing file.
######################################################################
Aug 29 11:11:02 ip-10-124-0-64 systemd[1]: Started customboot.service.
######################################################################
If I rename the service file to anything else that "luksautomount", the
service is started, the bash script executed and the line is appended to the
"/tmp/it-works" file.
