Hi;

I did see your comment re boot/post boot startup. I was curious about
the HOME (or MYHTCONFDIR) setting that got lopped off your script,
since the directory/user would likely be different at startup and
command-line start.

Full disclosure, I'm a *buntu/Upstart user.

If you just want to prove your theory that there's something that isn't
available at boot time startup, then how 'bout adding an:

     ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 20

until you find the actual resource that's unavailable. I'll sign off
on this one since I don't use systemd, but would have pastebin'ed
the whole log (--loglevel debug is a good idea too.)
