I believe in 1.6.8 we have the systemd stuff working cleanly now

According to Debian 8 (jessie) Admin manual the preferred method of starting something at boot time is to use systemd. In the freeswitch/debian directory provided with the sources there is a freeswitch.service example provided.
I have copied the provided example to /lib/systemd/system, and tweaked it to reflect my setup, and enabled it.

However, when trying to start freeswitch, it fails with the following errors.

I have very limited experience with systemd. I have the documentation from the Debian Admin Manual, but not much else.
I did successfully add another service to systemd. Initially I had the same error message "xxx.service start request repeated too quickly, refusing to start." and traced the problem to the service file pointing to the wrong place for one of the listed files. I have verified that all of the files do exist, and have suitable permissions.
Any as where I should go from here appreciated.
Thanks for your time.
William
