That looks like your error. Take a look at your systemd config.

# /etc/systemd/system/rclone.service
[Unit]
Description=Google Drive (rclone)
AssertPathIsDirectory=/media/emby
After=plexdrive.service

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/rclone mount \
    --config=/root/.config/rclone/rclone.conf \
--allow-other \
--buffer-size= 256M \
--fast-list \

ExecStop=/bin/fusermount -uz /media/emby
Restart=always
RestartSec=10

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

This is my systemd config

There's no destination to mount defined nor a source. The command is wrong.

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/rclone mount gdriveadam: /media/emby
--config=/root/.config/rclone/rclone.conf
--allow-other
--buffer-size= 256M
--fast-list \

You probably want something like above...

Sorry. I thought it copy/pasted my newer one:

Description=RClone Service
RequiresMountsFor= /media/emby
After=network-online.target

[Service]
Type=simple
ExecStart=/usr/bin/rclone mount gdriveadam: /media/emby \
--config /home/nodrog742/.config/rclone/rclone.conf \
--allow-non-empty \
--allow-other \
--vfs-cache-mode writes \
--max-transfer 750G

ExecStop=/bin/fusermount -uz /media/emby
Restart=always
RestartSec=10

[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

What are you trying to do with that?

You should change that to notify instead of simple.

You always want your mount location to be empty to prevent over mounting. You should remove this.

You should add a --log-file /tmp/rclone.log as well so you can get a log file.

Make those changes and reload systemd, start share the output of the rclone.log and the journalctl of the service.

It looks like I finally got it!
