Does anyone knows how to fix this? I've tried a few internet searches
already but the solutions didn't work for me

I will share the solution I have found for myself:

edit your /etc/systemd/system/trilium.service

Make sure everything there is correct, specially your user and group.
This did it for me.

​

 Trilium's documentation does mention replace the user and group as
needed but I just skip too fast through the deployment.
