Installing Roon Server on Fedora Linux _not_ as root

[S_Page]

Aha. From your post:

@Martin_Webster

The error occurs because SELinux prevents the system service from running. I assume this happens because the script and binaries are outside /usr/local/bin.

My solution was to move the installation from /opt/RoonBridge to /usr/local/bin/RoonBridge and edit /etc/systemd/system/roonbridge.service

Good to know. I initially tried the installation under /home/roon and SELinux was even more unhappy. Today I learned there’s endless debate over /opt vs. /usr/local; since Roon software isn’t packaged, /opt is arguably a more correct choice. The trade-off is SELinux wants me to “bless” the new location with restorecon.
