Failed to create directory: /config/Settings System.IO.IOException

[ruiribeiro2020]

Describe the Bug When I installed the app on unraid, I open the logo and receive an error saying that it failed to create the directory, and the log above also says 2024-05-09 22:07:20.445 BST [65] FATAL: role "root" does not exist Unhandled exception. System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path '/config/Settings' is denied.

I did the following on unraid:

1. set the POSTGRES_USER=sm as mentioned in #230
2. cd via webgui/ssh into the StreamMaster Config Host Volume

then run:

# /mnt/user/appdata/StreamMaster
chown . nobody:users

You can check permissions via ls -hal and see if it worked for you

Hello, thanks

But I still don't know very well how to do this, I still have little experience with Linux.

but when I had my previous server, with streammaster version 0.14.2, I think it was that, I installed it and it worked fine, I didn't need to change anything, when I installed version 0.14.4 it started to create these problems, it will be the version 0.14.4? is there any problem?

[ruiribeiro2020]

Hello again, I was investigating, and the error could be because I don't have the settings.json file, he didn't create it.

Hello, I had the same error and I solved it by manually creating the 'Settings' folder on the volume. I hope it helps. Luck!
