  • Is this a system or user unit? Commented Jun 19, 2021 at 2:48
  • If I understand correctly, this is a user unit as I own the computer and have root access. Commented Jun 19, 2021 at 9:52

    Offhand, what is the environment when the scripts are executed? Many people (incorrectly) assume that running the command manually (from a terminal window or shell) is the same as when systemd (or cron, or ....) execute it. You may have to set your current working directory and PATH variables in the scripts to the expected values, and possibly the expected user/primary group names Commented Jun 19, 2021 at 17:57
  • @BartWeil: where are the systemd scripts? If systemd wasn't used, you should remove it from the title. Otherwise, provide the details. Also, if you're using init.d scripts you need root access to install the scripts, noting that sudo gives you root privileges. In short, you haven't privide any useful information regarding your presumed problem. Commented Jun 20, 2021 at 1:58
