On CentOS I tried compiling the latest 2.3-dev5 version. Seems OK but I can’t get it to start and the config file tests fine. Seems to be the service startup file maybe? Getting:
Oct 03 17:21:17 haproxy.local systemd[1]: haproxy.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
Oct 03 17:21:17 haproxy.local systemd[1]: haproxy.service: Failed with result ‘exit-code’.
