Problem with autostart redshift

Good day. I followed the instructions in the wiki, however, when I rebooted my laptop, redshift was disabled. What should I do?

# Application configuration options
#
# NOTE: Having an entry here for an application with allowed=true means that
#       geoclue will not ask agent to authorize the application. This is to
#       ensure that applications with built-in authorization mechanism (e.g web
#       browsers) do not have to be bound to agents.
#
#       If your application is denied access to location information and your
#       operating system doesn't provide any mechanism to change that, it is
#       likely a bug in your operation system (or geoclue). The solution is to
#       report the issue with all details, rather than adding your application
#       to this list.

You need enable service to keep it in autostart:

systemctl enable redshift.service

I ran that and it showed me this

Failed to enable unit: Unit file redshift.service does not exist.

Why don’t you just use KDE’s Night Color?

Maybe it’s user service, try

systemctl --user enable redshift.service

tried this and it worked. thanks
