Failed to enable unit: Invalid unit name multi-user

So, I was trying to create a MAC Spoffing service using mcchanger, as the Wiki suggest i created this service:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/MAC_ad … cchanger_2

And added this code:

[Unit]
Description=macchanger on %I
Wants=network-pre.target
Before=network-pre.target
BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i.device
After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i.device

[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/macchanger -r %I
Type=oneshot

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

But when executing the

sudo systemctl enable macspoof@wlan0.service

This is the output

Failed to enable unit: Invalid unit name multi-user

I just came from debian, This is my second day on arch pls dont roast me guys

Re: Failed to enable unit: Invalid unit name multi-user

What is the name and full path of the unit file?

EDIT: welcome to the forums. Arch is way easier than Debian so you should be fine here :-)

Re: Failed to enable unit: Invalid unit name multi-user

You got 3 days of Welpenschutz¹, so tomorrow the gloves come off

systemctl status multi-user.target

Also please fix the link and use [code][/code] tags.
And upload the actual file

cat /etc/systemd/system/macspoof@.service | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

as this smells like some stray blank.

¹ The English language does not seem to have, but then certainly needs that word. Every language needs that word.
