Hidee ho, neighbors.
I followed this instruction to start on boot.
I made what I think are the appropriate changes to User and WorkingDirectory:
[Unit]
Description=Mycroft AI
After=pulseaudio.service[Service]
User=dan
WorkingDirectory=/home/dan/
ExecStart=/home/dan/mycroft-core/bin/mycroft-start all
ExecStop=/home/dan/mycroft-core/bin/mycroft-stop
Type=forking
Restart=no[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Running service mycroft status after rebooting gives me this:
dan@MyComputer:~$ service mycroft status
● mycroft.service - Mycroft AI

I’m running Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon, ver. 4.6.7.
I don’t really know anything about systemd, but I recently used it to connect my VPN on startup. I had issues with this too because my home directory is encrypted. I had to change the .service file and some other stuff to make it work.
Does anybody know if this is the issue and if there is a work-around?
Thank you!
Dan.
