As Fabien already asked it: the key for the problem can be in the systemd
unit file.
An important message from the pasted log: The last message was a sign of
that, that it started successfully. Since it was called with -F, it remains
in the foreground.
May I assume, that ha was not so experienced to recognise this fact, so
pressed a ctrl-c, and assumed the problem still exists.

However the only problem is systemd. And it's improper unit file.

But that is a guess also. We should see that unit file, what Fabien already
asked.

Btw.: It would be a good idea, to collect the unit file in the debug bundle
generator! ;-)

Cheers,
Gyu
