Gunicorn fails to start through systemd

Hey, I’m trying to get a django app that I’ve made work on the droplet, but I’m getting a really annoying issue with starting gunicorn through systemd

I was following this tutorial https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-django-with-postgres-nginx-and-gunicorn-on-ubuntu-20-04

and everything works as intented, till I test the socket activation

after typing in systemctl status gunicorn I get hit with this error message

● gunicorn.service - gunicorn daemon
     Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/gunicorn.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
     Active: failed (Result: exit-code) since Fri 2021-07-16 10:19:26 UTC; 25min ago
TriggeredBy: ● gunicorn.socket
    Process: 1769 ExecStart=/home/basic/project/projectenv/bin/gunicorn --access-logfile - --workers 3 --bind unix:/run/gunicorn.sock myapp.wsgi:application (code=exited, stat>

seeing the logfile with gunicorn --log-file=- myapp.wsgi:aplication gives me

Any ideas what might be wrong?
