This is something that may be confusing as people get used to systemd
rather than the old init. The "log" output for most services is now sent
to your syslog rather than stdout, even if starting manually.

grep StandardOutput= /lib/systemd/system/*.service

So whenever any service fails, you need to get used to looking in syslog
first for any possible description.
