Hello,

I’ve just installed Kamailio 4.3 on Debian 8.2, but starting kamailio does not work since Debian requires systemctl to be setup.

I’ve tried the below config but it didn’t work (https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/issues/294#issuecomment-138590939)

usr/local/src/kamailio# systemctl status kamailio.service

â kamailio.service - Kamailio SIP Server

   Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/kamailio.service; disabled)

   Active: failed (Result: resources)

Does anyone have a working kamailio.service file?
