Ah, that could have been it.
I purged it and set it up on a Fedora VM instead. It's not where I
wanted it to run, but I can live with that. It's basically working out
of the box.
The Debian package doesn't seem to be managed well. It even still uses
an init.d script instead of a service file.
Debian keeps letting me down now every time. It's scary to see that it
has gone that bad. I was hoping to put it on some servers, but I might
have to go with Fedora instead.
