Fixing a systemd service 203/EXEC failure (no such file or directory)

Question

I\'m trying to set up a simple systemd timer to run a bash script every day at midnight.

systemctl --user status backup.service fails and logs the follo

Answer 1

When this happened to me it was because my script had DOS line endings, which always messes up the shebang line at the top of the script. I changed it to Unix line endings and it worked.
