[Samba] copy of a share without path

Hello,

Is the example for 'copy' (
https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/using_samba/ch06.html ) valid?
[template]
    writable = yes
    browsable = yes
    valid users = andy, dave, jay

When I'm trying a similar configuration, I can't log in and I have this
message in log.smbd:
WARNING: No path in service template - making it unavailable!

It seems I need to add a path:
[template]
    writable = yes
    browsable = yes
    valid users = andy, dave, jay
    path = /path/somewhere

Or maybe there is something with the version of Samba that I'm using:
2:4.1.6+dfsg-1ubuntu2.14.04.11

Regards,
Alexandre Klein
