Unable to run in different directories

[SonGokussj4]

I've downloaded the tar, unpacked and moved the executable (Rocky Linux 8.6) into my ~/bin folder. When I run it anywhere, nothing happens (diskusage -h works) unless I go to ~/bin folder and run it there.

If I want to check diskusage of /my/interesting/path, I would need to copy this file into that path and then run it there.

Thank you for your attention and use, it may be that there are many files, so it takes a long time to run.

@SonGokussj4 Hi! my friend. Have you solved your problem?

[SonGokussj4]

It behaves... Interestingly.

• If I open my terminal at home ~, type diskusage, it displays nothing and it's finished right away
• If I go to ~/GIT where my projects are and type diskusage, it correctly displays all files/folders as it should
• It work in my "user" folder on remote disk (linux mounted)
• But on the same disk in different folder where there are terabytes of data when I run it, it ends right away and nothing happens

I'm not sure what's happening but I'm missing some error/exception/logging management that tells me where is the problem, why it didn't even start to gather info.

Oh and when it ends, it returns classical 1, so no error code.

Try using sudo diskage

It works with sudo.

But that shouldn't be the way it works. If I needed to do that for testing purposes, that's ok. But this kind of program should, even partly, without sudo.
