Update setup flow for bare metal with systemd

Browse Source 
The default files assume a specific path on the target system. Added a note letting people know they need to edit the files. Also fixed a bug with enabling the service - it caused odd errors on my system. Tested on Centos 7.

@ -300,13 +300,19 @@ Standard (Bare Metal, Systemd)
If you're running on a bare metal system that's using Systemd, you can use the
service unit files in the ``scripts`` directory to set this up. You'll need to
create a user called ``paperless`` and setup Paperless to be in a place that
this new user can read and write to. Then, you can just tell Systemd to enable
the two ``.service`` files::
this new user can read and write to. Be sure to edit the service scripts to point
to the proper location of your paperless install. Note that if your system aliased
``/usr/bin/python`` to python3 you should modify the ``ExecStart`` line to look like
this: ``ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 /path/to/paperless/src/manage.py document_consumer``.
If you don't want to make a new user, you can change the ``Group`` and ``User`` variables
accordingly.
# systemctl enable /path/to/paperless/scripts/paperless-consumer.service
# systemctl enable /path/to/paperless/scripts/paperless-webserver.service
# systemctl start /path/to/paperless/scripts/paperless-consumer.service
# systemctl start /path/to/paperless/scripts/paperless-webserver.service
Then, you can just tell Systemd to enable the two ``.service`` files::
# sudo systemctl enable /path/to/paperless/scripts/paperless-consumer.service
# sudo systemctl enable /path/to/paperless/scripts/paperless-webserver.service
# sudo systemctl start paperless-consumer
# sudo systemctl start paperless-webserver
