Can a functional equation of the form: $\zeta (s)=f(s) \zeta (s+1)$ exist?

Is it known if a functional equation of the form:

$$\zeta (s)=f(s) \zeta (s+1)$$

can exist?

If it is possible for such a functional equation to exist then I believe lots of wonderful things would happen. In particular one could solve this integral:

$$\int \log (\zeta (s)) \, ds$$

on the critical line by extending the validity of the Euler product formula to it.
