The service is disabled at boot time. sudo systemctl enable mythtvbackend

There's nothing wrong with that service name, however mythtv-backend
is also common. Just be sure you don't have both. Try:
systemctl status myth*.service

Hopefully, when you start the backend from the command line, you're using
sudo systemctl start mythtvbackend

To see where logs are going, you need to look at the service:
systemctl cat mythtvbackend
