configuration for haproxy in ubuntu?

Question

I'm getting the following problem when I'm configuring haproxy stats:

Job for haproxy.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status haproxy.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

Below is my configuration file code:

listen  stats   192.168.10.10:1936
        mode            http
        log             global

if you run journalctl -xe or view your log file you would see you have severe config problems

'listen' cannot handle unexpected argument '192.168.10.10:1936'. parsing [/etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg:1] : please use the 'bind' keyword for listening addresses. Error(s) found in configuration file : /etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg

Place the keyword "bind" infront of your stats ip:port , i.e:

listen  stats
        bind            192.168.10.10:1936
