Hi guys, I have a problem during the sinusbot launch.
The problem is the following:
Error: Could not create directory /home/sinusbot/data//db; mkdir /home/sinusbot/data//db: permission denied
I have a Debian 8 VPS, I resetted it because of my ts3 server, but now, when I reinstalled sinusbot, I can't run it.
Before resetting I didn't have any problem with that.

Did you gave the Sinusbot user the rights back after reinstalling via root?

i mean permission to execute a program/read/write files. If you have created those files with the root user and want to start them now as another user(bot user etc) it need to have rights to see/use those files under linux (same under windows, there it asks for admin/user password)

The command for that would be
chown -R sinusbot:sinusbot /opt/sinusbot

replace the filepath with you custom install path. I guess its /home/sinusbot or so for you

obviously executed as root/current rightholder

If it still wont work after that then its another problem.
