Hey @Kate
I tried this but I get this error

sudo systemctl status ghost_localhost
ghost_localhost.service
Loaded: error (Reason: No such file or directory)
Active: inactive (dead)

sudo systemctl start ghost_localhost

still gives

Failed to issue method call: Unit ghost_localhost.service failed to load: No such file or directory. See system logs and ‘systemctl status ghost_localhost.service’ for details.

What is the output of ls -la system/files?

You can try running systemctl daemon-reload, maybe the symlinks are broken.
