Serious bug with UMS 9.8.3 and 10

Post by Smarthome-Creator »

Hello, I hope someone can help.
Yesterday I wanted to update the UMS to version 10 and now I have the problem that no more transcode engines can be loaded.
The UMS has been running on a Debian 9 for years and everything ran smoothly up to version 9.8.1.
With the update to version 10 I get the following problem:

ERROR An error prevented UMS from checking Linux permissions: Cannot run program "id": error=13, Keine Berechtigung
16:29:04 ERROR Error killing old process: java.io.IOException: Cannot run program "kill": error=13, Keine Berechtigung

16:29:07 ERROR Error initializing process:

All transcode engines are loaded with Error = 13 no authorization.

I've tried UMS 9.8.3 and UMS 10 on an Ubuntu 20.10 and get the same error messages.
I don't know what else to do, because it is simply not understandable why UMS cannot access these files.

With UMS 9.8.1 everything still worked, I hope someone can help. And I can no longer downgrade because traces are left somewhere in the system, which are then also loaded by UMS 9.8.1 and accordingly access to the transcode engines is denied.

Thanks for your help

It looks like the folder doesn't have permissions, does it work if you use chmod to set permissions on the folders? Like here https://stackoverflow.com/a/19255415/2049714
