Systemd service won't start? Read the logs and fix it (complete guide)

Your systemd service won't start, or starts and dies a second later? Learn to read the status and the logs the right way, and fix the three most common causes: a wrong path in the unit file, an app that crashes on start, and a port that is already taken. Then make it start at every boot and restart itself after a crash.
