Your service and environment file looks like the default version to me. So there shouldn't be any problems with your specific files.
Please send the output of journalctl -r -g crowsnest.

Small Note: --set-ctrl=rotate=180 shouldn't be like that inside the v4l2ctl section. Change it to v4l2ctl: rotate=180

[lyj0309]

well, it's works when i update it to newest version

[YaphetS1]

Same issue at the latest commit in master...

[YaphetS1]

how to solve it?

[mryel00]

@YaphetS1 Sry if that now sound rude, but what do you expect us to do? You gave no information, not even the information I asked OP for. For OP an update solved it, so that would be the answer for this specific case but this issue can have multiple different reasons.
Therefore: no information => no help possible
Also if you need help on this, you should join the Discord as I already wrote in this issue.

[YaphetS1]

The problem was in custom working directory, so the systemd output is (code=exited, status=200/CHDIR).
That output was to look at /etc/systemd/system/crowsnest.service. When I changed "WorkingDirectory" to crowsnest directory, systemctl turned out to be satisfactory

[YaphetS1]

It's strange. Why script doesn't update it by 'pwd'?

[mryel00]

@YaphetS1 Sry, I completely forgot to answer you here. We decided against this, as it's less error prone like this.
But we added #205 recently. With this you can fix your WorkingDirectory easily. The intended usecase of this is for developing and to make it easier to let someone test something without the need of setting up multitple GitHub remote paths.
