Description:

Package `coturn` provides a systemd unit named `turnserver`. After properly configuring the turnserver, I have no problem starting the unit with `systemctl start turnserver` and using it.

The issue occurs when doing `systemctl enable turnserver` and rebooting. The unit is reported as failing to start after the reboot. The relevant warnings and errors reported on `journalctl -u turnserver` are:

```
turnserver[341]: 0: : ERROR: main: Cannot configure any meaningful IP listener address
systemd[1]: turnserver.service: Control process exited, code=exited, status=255/EXCEPTION
systemd[1]: turnserver.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
systemd[1]: Failed to start STUN and TURN relay server for VoIP and WebRTC.
```

If I restart the unit with `systemctl restart turnserver`, the unit starts properly.

I managed a workaround (so that it starts correctly after reboot) by doing `systemctl edit turnserver` and adding:

```
[Unit]
After=network-online.target
After=remote-fs.target
Wants=network-online.target
```

and it worked! I just wanted to open this bug report to leave this as a suggestion to the package maintainer.


You might also want to repurpose the example systemd service file they provide upstream: https://github.com/coturn/coturn/blob/master/examples/etc/coturn.service



Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any

I forgot to specify the coturn package version: 4.5.2-1
