    The prosody package for debian stretch, from packages.prosody.im, installs a systemd 'prosody.service' unit file which includes directives that aren't recognised by stretch's version of systemd. Example from syslog: Aug 20 01:15:39 prosody systemd[1]: [/lib/systemd/system/prosody.service:25] Unknown lvalue 'ConfigurationDirectory' in section 'Service' Aug 20 01:15:39 prosody systemd[1]: [/lib/systemd/system/prosody.service:26] Unknown lvalue 'StateDirectory' in section 'Service' Aug 20 01:15:39 prosody systemd[1]: [/lib/systemd/system/prosody.service:27] Unknown lvalue 'StateDirectoryMode' in section 'Service' Aug 20 01:15:39 prosody systemd[1]: [/lib/systemd/system/prosody.service:28] Unknown lvalue 'LogsDirectory' in section 'Service' What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? Package: prosody Version: 0.11.5-1~stretch6 Debian stretch (9.13)

    Thanks for the report. From what I can tell, these are not fatal errors, it simply ignores those directives ... loudly. Further, the support for Debian 9 ended on 2020-07-06 and we will not be producing further packages for stretch.
