Service breaks after few minutes of inactivity

Hi

A while ago I installed OpenProject 5 in a Debian 8 LXC container (running on ProxMox) using the DEB package from the stable 5 repo.
It seemed to install fine and I spent quite a bit of time getting it configured and integrated with our Active Directory. However the service would never run unless I enter this at the console:
openproject run web

After a short period of inactivity I get this message on the console:
INFO -- : SIGWINCH ignored because we're not daemonized

Following this message, openproject is no longer accessible in a web browser which reports:

Proxy Error

The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

===

I never managed to resolve this issue so I switched off the virtual server and forgot about it.

Today I have an urgent requirement for a project management tool so having discovered the 6.0 release of OpenProject I spun up that server and upgraded to 6.0.4 hoping it might fix my problem. Unfortunately not. I still get exactly the same problem within around 5 minutes of inactivity.

After the upgrade I ran ‘openproject configure’ and noticed the following errors at the end of the output:

/usr/bin/openproject: line 243: systemctl: command not found /usr/bin/openproject: line 244: systemctl: command not found Nothing to do. /usr/bin/openproject: line 243: systemctl: command not found /usr/bin/openproject: line 244: systemctl: command not found Nothing to do. openproject: unrecognized services

Does anyone have this running successfully in a similar environment?
Any suggestions?

thanks
