Hi i've built bitcoin core 0.15 from source and am trying to get it to run at startup.

I've used the bitcoind.conf file found in the bitcoin core repository https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/init.md

I'm also running Ubuntu 16.04 and am trying to test my upstart script i've placed in /etc/init by running service bitcoind start however i get the following error:

Failed to start bitcoind.service: Unit bitcoind.service not found.

The only thing i've changed in the example script is user to my user (sudo privileges) and the group to sudo.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks
