Setting default wallet failing

TestNet
1

For the purposes of completing a past task, I’ve created a wallet called sigmoidbell-wallet and I’m now trying to set it as default but it seems to fail.
I get the following response:

sigmoidbell@algorand:~/node$ ./goal wallet -f sigmoidbell-wallet -d data

Are you running any of your commands as root, or using sudo? Can you cat data/testnet-v26.1/accountList.json?

Did you create the wallet after this afternoon’s update? You shouldn’t have to - I’m just curious.

Hi andriko,

This looks like a permissions issue. I think if you run:

sudo chown -R sigmoidbell:sigmoidbell data

and then don’t use root for your subsequent commands, that should fix it. Please let me know if that works!

You guys were both right, some parts of the data folder were owned by root and this is because I set the update cronjob in the root’s crontab.

Problem resolved, thank you!
