AppImage doesn't create folder in home (no permissions to access directory) #201

Closed erciccione closed 1 year ago

erciccione commented 1 year ago

System: Fedora 37 binaries: Firo-Client-3.0.1.AppImage If i leave the default path for "Data Directory" (.firo) in the "Select network and blockchain" screen, i get this error:

You don't have permissions to access the directory you selected. Please try again

Changing to /tmp or other paths seem to work

Actually, this seems to be unrelated to firo-client. Looks like that the .firo folder was created as root and the appimage cannot rightfully access it. Not sure how that happened, because i didn't create the folder manually, so it was probably generated when trying to run firo binaries from the main repo. Closing the issue here in the meantime, as it's not an issue of this repo.
