Running utilities as sudo

[Pothen Verghese]

Hi,

When we run any of the utilities through sudo, it fails. For example:

fails with below message:

But if the same command is run as root, it runs successfully. Any idea why with sudo it is not able to see the library and throws the above error?

Hi Pothen,

can you please try this additional start parameter:

sudo -E ./ucybdbar -B -S200

Another method is to add required environment variables to the sudoers file via "sudo visudo"

regards,
Peter

Hi Peter,

With sudo -E the error is same as before.

But if we use the UCxxxxx command within a shell script with env vars and call the script through sudo, the above error doesn't occur.

So for now we have sorted this, by running the script as a normal user with required folder permissions.

Thanks for the reply.
