## Setting up a system service
OTP releases have different service files than from-source installs so they need to be copied over again.
+**Warning:** The service files assume pleroma user's home directory is `/opt/pleroma`, please make sure all paths fit your installation.
+
Debian/Ubuntu:
```sh
# Copy the service into a proper directory
cp ~pleroma/installation/pleroma.service /etc/systemd/system/pleroma.service
# Reload service files
-systemctl reload-daemon
+systemctl daemon-reload
# Reenable pleroma to start on boot
systemctl reenable pleroma
