Fatal error while trying to open Roon

[Rugby (aka Daniel or Big Dan)]

Hi Roberto,

Reviewing previous issues, it seems that one possibility is that there is no write access to /tmp folder.

Take a read of this thread

Fatal Error: Could not create required lock file on startup on Mac OSX Yosemite [Solved]

that error occurs because it couldnt write the lock file to /tmp that ensures multiple Roons are not running… NOTE: I just checked the code and I’m not obeying $TEMP/$TMP (since the code has to work across two different processes with possibly different env vars) – just putting it in /tmp. all the code does is create a file in /tmp, and then try to F_SETLK it
