Manager does not start after recent update on Ubuntu

34

I do have the same situation:

 /opt/manager-accounting $ ./manager-accounting 

Unhandled Exception:
System.UnauthorizedAccessException: Access to the path "/opt/manager-accounting/libe_sqlite3.so" is denied.
  at System.IO.FileStream..ctor (System.String path, System.IO.FileMode mode,

However, starting Manager as superuser solves the issue…

/opt/manager-accounting $ sudo ./manager-accounting 
[sudo] password for xxxxxx: 
Vector smash protection is enabled.
openjdk version "1.8.0_03-Ubuntu"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_03-Ubuntu-8u77-b03-3ubuntu3-b03)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.03-b03, mixed mode)

Maybe this information will help.

With some additional testing, I’ve found a workaround.
Workaround:

  1. de-install Manager.
  2. remove libe_sqlite3.so (or at least rename it)
  3. re-install Manager
  4. Start Manager with root rights (This wil recreate the libe_sqlite3.so file)
  5. Exit Manager.

After these steps, I was able te start the Manager as ordinary user.

All of the above is done on Linux Mint 18 (Ubuntu 16.04)
