+Adapt the paths in the file accordingly. Then, still as root, run:

+This enables the service to start at boot time and starts it immediately now. The daemon logs to the journal. You can see the last 10 lines by running `systemctl status eva.service` or the whole log by running `journalctl -u eva.service`. The usual switches to manipulate that output are available.
