Setting up the bitcoind to run at startup Ubuntu 17.04

I've created a bitcoin.service file as found here:



https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/contrib/init/bitcoind.service



However i've modified it as i build bitcoin-core from source to the following:



https://gist.github.com/anonymous/7e1bca97739147d698327d7f3a119992



It is installed to:



/lib/systemd/system



As apparently in this version of Ubuntu it must be there



It runs when i run this command:



bitcoind -daemon -pid=/home/chris/.bitcoin/bitcoind.pid -
conf=/home/chris/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf -datadir=/home/chris/.bitcoin/
-disablewallet


However trying to run:



systemctl start bitcoind


Gives this error
