When running as a not-root user, the rendezvous server (hbbr) fails to create the config directory (#526):
ERROR [libs/hbb_common/src/config.rs:538] Failed to store config: Failed to create directory.The reason being that when using a non-root user, e.g.
user: 1234, since it's missing in the/etc/passwdthe home directory defaults to the root of the filesystem (/), but as the container is not running as root, it does not have permission to write there./rootis the mapped volume which the user is expected to have already set the correct permissions for the container to run, thus the simples workaround is setting theHOMEvariable to/root, where the.configdirectory can be created.
