Description Of Issue
I just installed a new SSD on my friend’s Mac Mini (late 2014)(2.6GHz i5) running macOS Mojave v10.14.6. We downloaded and installed Roon for the Mac and always get the “Fatal Error - Could not create required lock file” message when trying to start the program every time. Cannot get the program to start to set anything else up.
I’ve set the hard drives permissions to read/write and applied to all folders, tried all kinds of recommended commands through terminal, booted into recovery mode and found no errors through the disk utility, reinstalled Roon, and probably several things I can’t remember… Pretty much went through all related posts no without success. Over 3 hours of frustration. Help
