Is there an existing issue for this?

Describe the bug

I have a server.js file that manages my whatsapp sessions by starting and closing a dedicated terminal (running a app.js file) based on active/deactivated sessions. This all works and also manages the creation of directories. When I activate a session, a 6-digit numeric id is generated that is used to identify the session and from the main /wweb/sessions folder, the following directories are created: /wweb/sessions/479717 for project files (this folder is deleted when you turn off the session) /wweb/sessions/cache/session-479717 to save the session with LocalAuth()

The problem is really in the LocalAuth() function that gives this error when it has to save the session:

/wweb/node_modules/puppeteer/lib/cjs/puppeteer/node/BrowserRunner.js:241
            reject(new Error([
                   ^

Error: Failed to launch the browser process!
[0611/131646.235572:ERROR:command_line_handler.cc(137)] Could not create directory /wweb/sessions/cache/session-479717: Read-only file system (30)

This is my client:

const client = new Client({
    puppeteer: {
        executablePath: '/usr/bin/chromium-browser',
        headless: true,
        ignoreHTTPSErrors: true,
        args: [
            "--window-size=1300,1000",
            "--disable-notifications",
            "--disable-gpu",
            "--disable-setuid-sandbox",
            "--force-device-scale-factor",
            "--ignore-certificate-errors",
            "--no-sandbox",
        ],
        defaultViewport: { width:1300, height:1000 }
    },
    webVersion: '2.2412.54v2',
    webVersionCache: {
        type: 'remote',
        remotePath: 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/guigo613/alternative-wa-version/main/html/2.2412.54v2.html'
    },
    authStrategy: new LocalAuth({ clientId: '479717', dataPath: '/wweb/sessions/cache' })
});

I would like to understand where I am going wrong... I have already tried giving privileges to the local account alberto with the following commands: sudo chmod -R 777 /wweb/sessions sudo chown -R alberto:alberto /wweb/sessions

Expected behavior

I would like to resolve this error and for the QR Code to come up for me to connect to Whatsapp Web as expected. I specify that if I disable authentication in the configuration everything works fine.

Steps to Reproduce the Bug or Issue

Running my server.js file (this is always running)
That is auto launching an app.js file in a dedicated terminal
All this process is working
Now I need the WhatsappWeb QRCode
But I get the showed error
I'm not happy

Relevant Code

sudo please don't ignore me

Browser Type

Chromium

WhatsApp Account Type

Standard

Does your WhatsApp account have multidevice enabled?

Yes, I am using Multi Device

Environment

"os": "Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS",
"nodejs": "v18.20.2",
"npm": "v10.5.0",
"dependencies":` {
    "chalk": "^5.2.0",
    "colors": "^1.4.0",
    "files": "^2.2.2",
    "image-downloader": "^4.3.0",
    "ip": "^1.1.8",
    "mysql": "^2.18.1",
    "node-emoji": "^1.11.0",
    "path": "^0.12.7",

    "qrcode-terminal": "^0.12.0",
    "util": "^0.12.5",
    "whatsapp-web.js": "^1.19.5"
  }

Additional context

Question: if by “Does your WhatsApp account have multidevice enabled?” you mean multiple devices on a single script then my answer is “NO”... if, on the other hand, you mean that my account connected to the project is also associated with other devices then my answer is “YES”
