It is quite simple - there is only one '-' character missing from the path information in the file filebeat-oss.service (see also):

I was getting an error with systemctl start filebeat-oss.service.

I fixed it by adjusting the systemd service file to align with the one used in the official .deb file available here: https://artifacts.elastic.co/downloads/beats/filebeat/filebeat-8.17.0-amd64.deb
