   starting mis on system bootup

   Hi,   
      
   I currently run Mystic A47 on a Slackware system; but due   
   to infrastructure shuffling, I need to migrate it off to   
   something that is more up 24/7.   
      
   I've set up a new system that's based on CentOS 7.9   
   and I'm not familiar with systemd and how it   
   starts services.   
      
   What I currently have is this for my /etc/systemd/mis.service   
      
      
   [Unit]   
     Description=Mystic BBS start   
      
   [Service]   
     User=bbs   
     ExecStart=/mystic/mis daemon   
     ExecStop=/mystic/mis shutdown   
      
   [Install]   
     WantedBy=default.target   
      
      
   But when I do the following:   
      
   1) systemctl daemon-reload   
   2) systemctl enable mis.service   
      
   3) systemctl start mis   
      
   I noticed in "journalctl -xe", I get that it first starts the   
   service then it shuts it down.   
      
   So I figured that maybe ExecStop shouldn't be in it, so I   
   removed it.  Did step 1 again.  then started mis.   
      
   When I do a  "ps -ax", I don't see it running.  When I try   
   to ssh into it using the ssh port,  it doesn't connect   
   as it's not listening, which is confirmed when I do a   
   "netstat -na".   
      
   Can someone point out what I'm missing?   
      
   Thanks
