Issue Type

New Documentation Request

Description

I'm running Debian 13.1.0 in a VM and built Actual from source, but I encountered an issue during the setup.

The documentation instructs to create the service file at:

/etc/systemd/service/actual-server.service

However, in the following steps, this path is misspelled in step 3.

The documentation currently says:

3. Install and start the systemd unit file -> systemctl enable --now /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/actual-server.service

It should instead be:

Install and start the systemd unit file -> systemctl enable --now /etc/systemd/service/multi-user.target.wants/actual-server.service

Could you confirm the correct path or update the documentation accordingly?
