KNIME has no write permission in /usr/share/java/knime-desktop/ and is not able to install any plugins.

Hi, after installing extension a couple of months ago KNIME stopped working for me (something similar to saras_ram issue). I hoped that update would help but now I am getting an error message. When I try to open KNIME from menu I get "An error has occured. See the log file null" (I don't know what and where the log file null is, all knime related log files are related to the previous installation). When I try starting KNIME from the command line (as a user) I get the following output:

knime-desktop

I am able to start KNIME from command line with sudo. Please help to resolve the issue.

i am not sure that i solve the problem,but i do it.

Solved the issue now. Thanks

Hi, I am trying to install an extension and got this error-

'Permission problem: Your KNIME installation directory seems to be read-only, maybe because KNIME was installed by a different user, eg., the system administrator. Intalling extensions or updating KNIME without write permissions may cause problems. Do you really want to continue?'

After ignoring the above and continuing the process, the following was thrown at me:

"An error occurred while configuring the installed items session context was:(profile=KNIMEProfile, phase=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.engine.phases.Configure, operand=null --> [R]com.knime.licenses 6.6.1.v202412171059, action=org.eclipse.equinox.internal.p2.touchpoint.natives.actions.MkdirAction). Could not create directory /usr/share/java/knime-desktop/licenses."

I changed the permissions of the directory where I installed Knime using chmod <permission> <directory>, yet the error remains.

Should I change the 'owner' of the directory as well using 'chown' or is something else causing the problem? Because, when I checked the '.tar.st' directory (zipped), the owner of the files showed a different name than mine, I'm imagining it may be one of the maintainers. please correct me if i'm wrong

I use KNIME 5.4.3 and Arch Linux 6.13.8-arch1-1. And my linux proficiency is just over the beginner level.

Please can someone help me?!

Thanks in advance

at last upstreaming, i can get the file, but now ,i cant(i dont know why

I understand. Yes, you can add me as a co-maintainer.

if you need, i can set a comaintainer

To be honest, as a China Mainland maintainer ,I can't get the files so,i can't update sha256sum and i only spend time updating on weekend,sorry

Please use the correct SHA256SUM, no reason to skip it. Also, please bump the package release accordingly if you do multiple commits. Follow the package guidelines docs
