# Problem description:
When using `systemctl enable apache2` to start apache2 by default on bootup, the command returns the returncode 1.
The systemd service for apache2 itself is generated by 'systemd-sysv-generator' based on /etc/init.d/apache2.

The output of `systemctl enable apache2` is:

```
Synchronizing state for apache2.service with sysvinit using update-rc.d...
Executing /usr/sbin/update-rc.d apache2 defaults
Executing /usr/sbin/update-rc.d apache2 enable
Failed to execute operation: No such file or directory
```

The content of the generated transient service unit is:

```INI
# /run/systemd/generator.late/apache2.service
# Automatically generated by systemd-sysv-generator
