[lxc-users] LXC container and Systemd

[Goran]

Always the same behavior, if the binary is executed as a user
different from root, systemd does not find the binary.

In this case

# which bash
/usr/bin/bash

can't be found by systemd. ExecStart=whatsoever does not work. It
doesn't matter if it's bash or grafana-server as long the user differs
from root.
