I'm trying to set bitwarden_rs as service with this .service file:

[Unit]
Description=Bitwarden Server (Rust Edition)
Documentation=https://github.com/dani-garcia/bitwarden_rs
After=network.target

[Service]
# The user/group bitwarden_rs is run under. the working directory (see below) should allow write and read access to this user/group
User=bitwarden_rs
Group=bitwarden_rs
# The location of the .env file for configuration
EnvironmentFile=/root/bitwarden_rs-1.8.0/bitwarden_rs.env
# The location of the compiled binary
ExecStart=/root/bitwarden_rs-1.8.0
# Set reasonable connection and process limits
LimitNOFILE=1048576
LimitNPROC=64
# Isolate bitwarden_rs from the rest of the system
PrivateTmp=true
PrivateDevices=true
ProtectHome=true
ProtectSystem=strict
# Only allow writes to the following directory and set it to the working directory (user and password data are stored here)
WorkingDirectory=/root/bitwarden_rs-1.8.0
ReadWriteDirectories=/root/bitwarden_rs-1.8.0
# Allow bitwarden_rs to bind ports in the range of 0-1024
AmbientCapabilities=CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

And I get this:

[root@preprod-bitwarden01 bitwarden_rs-1.8.0]#  journalctl -u bitwarden_rs.service
