The standard input, output, and error streams for activated services
will have been redirected to /dev/null I believe.  If inside your
service you want to get output from printf you'll need to open them
somewhere else such as a log file.

My guess with that command is that you don't have permissions to
create new files in the root directory on your OS.  Try instead
writing to say "/tmp/myapp.log" for debugging purposes.  For system
services you could use syslog or another logging facility.
