Factory can not be run as a second user without a computer restart

[jonathan-wondereur]

When I try to run faktory as a user without sudo it crashes. How can I enable faktory to run as a user without sudo?

Okay, sorry, this is actually an issue with starting the process with one user, shutting it down and trying to start it with another user.

In this case the second user can not fully start faktory until the computer has a restart.

Looks like Redis maybe doesn’t have permissions to write to that DB directory?

Sorry, see my comment, the issue is actually something else, not that big of an issue really, just something to know ...
