Command failed when running ghost start

Fresh install, trying to run ghost start I get the following error:

Debug Information:
    OS: Raspbian, v8.0
    Node Version: v6.13.0
    Ghost-CLI Version: 1.5.2
    Environment: production
    Command: 'ghost start'
An error occurred.
Message: 'Command failed: /bin/sh -c systemctl is-active ghost_blog-dev

unknown
'

Stack: Error: Command failed: /bin/sh -c systemctl is-active ghost_blog-dev

If I manually run the command that is says failed it seems to execute without error though I am not sure what it does. I assume it has something to do with checking with nginx if ghost has actually started or not.

Any suggestions would be very helpful! Thank you!

I faced with the same problem. You should add your service file to etc directory also as symbolic link using the following command:

sudo ln -sf /var/www/html/your-blog/system/files/ghost_blog-yourblog.service /etc/systemd/system/ghost_blog-yourblog.service

After adding this, you should execute the following commands:

sudo systemctl stop ghost_blog-yourblog.service
sudo systemctl start ghost_blog-yourblog.service

Then, I hope you'll see 'active' result for is-active command.
