Run Gunicorn service on DigitalOcean starting a Django project

I have the following systemd file at /etc/systemd/system/gunicorn.service

[Unit]
Description=Gunicorn daemon for Django Project
Before=nginx.service
After=network.target

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/home/serverapp
ExecStart=gunicorn --name=avesoft  --bind unix:/home/serverapp/gunicorn.socket --config /etc/gunicorn.d/gunicorn.py WebApp.wsgi:application
Restart=always
SyslogIdentifier=gunicorn
User=root
Group=www-data


[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

When I manually change the directory to /home/serverapp and run gunicorn --name=avesoft --bind unix:/home/serverapp/gunicorn.socket --config /etc/gunicorn.d/gunicorn.py WebApp.wsgi:application everything works fine and Nginx connects to my Django app through Gunicorn.

But by rebooting the server, I get Bad Gateway error that seems Gunicorn has not started working. I don't get what is the reason behind my service file not working.

So I fixed that problem by providing the path for gunicorn :

[Unit]
Description=Gunicorn daemon for Django Project
Before=nginx.service
After=network.target

[Service]
WorkingDirectory=/home/serverapp
ExecStart=/usr/bin/gunicorn --name=avesoft  --bind unix:/home/serverapp/gunicorn.socket --config /etc/gunicorn.d/gunicorn.py WebApp.wsgi:application
Restart=always
SyslogIdentifier=gunicorn
User=root
Group=www-data


[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
