Ubuntu 20.04 LTS systemd start up script is not working "bad unit file setting"

I've set up a minecraft server, I've made a start script which works when I execute it. I've made a .service in systemd that should start the script when the server starts, but I am having issues with the systemd part of it. Here is what I have.

[Unit]
Description=DeadSky minecraft server
After=network-online.target
[Service]
User=mcadmin
ExecStart=/home/mcadmin/MCServer/start.sh
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Please help me.

I've made update suggested and still having issues.

This line

ExecStart=/home/mcadmin/MCServer/ ./start.sh is incorrect.

It should look like this:

ExecStart=/home/mcadmin/MCServer/start.sh

if start.sh is located in the home/mcadmin/MCServer directory.
