Watch Service No Longer Working On Debian Linux

[paterson37]

Confirmation

• I have read the README.md on the project homepage
• I have checked if identical issue already exists
• I have tried downgrading to find version that can be used as a workaround

The problem

Since setting this up in September it's been working perfectly via the watch service.

However, as of 20th November, it stopped tracking. I had not made any changes to anything on my system. So I am unsure what the problem could be.

When I check sudo systemctl status PlexTraktSync.service I get the below output.

● PlexTraktSync.service - PlexTraktSync watch daemon
     Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/PlexTraktSync.service; enabled; preset>
     Active: activating (auto-restart) (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2024-11-25>
   Main PID: 1999259 (code=exited, status=203/EXEC)
        CPU: 1ms

I hadn't ran an update command in a while so I thought I would try updating but that hasn't fixed it either.

My service file is as below.

[Unit]
Description=PlexTraktSync watch daemon
After=network-online.target

[Service]
ExecStart=plextraktsync watch
Restart=on-failure
RestartSec=10

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Apologies, I am still new when it comes to the like of linux and such things.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. sudo systemctl status PlexTraktSync.service
2. Checked output

● PlexTraktSync.service - PlexTraktSync watch daemon
     Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/PlexTraktSync.service; enabled; preset>
     Active: activating (auto-restart) (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2024-11-25>
   Main PID: 1999259 (code=exited, status=203/EXEC)
        CPU: 1ms 

3. Tried replacing ExecStart string with path as per the readme page on here and doing the daemon, service start and service enable commands. But status showed same thing.
