Solved iventoy does not start on Fedora 38

[bnsmb]

Hi

iventoy 1.0.10 (like the preivous releases) does not start on my Thinkpad running Fedora 38:

Code:

[xtrnaw7@t15g /tools/iventoy-1.0.10]$ ls

Environment:

Code:

[xtrnaw7@t15g /tools/iventoy-1.0.10]$ uname -a
Linux t15g.isbs.de 6.3.11-200.fc38.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Sun Jul  2 13:17:31 UTC 2023 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[xtrnaw7@t15g /tools/iventoy-1.0.10]$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora release 38 (Thirty Eight)
[xtrnaw7@t15g /tools/iventoy-1.0.10]$

There is not really much info in the log file and I can't find the reason in the output of strace (see the attachment)

Any clues?

regards

Please use sudo, that is  sudo ./iventoy.sh start

[bnsmb]

Please use sudo, that is  sudo ./iventoy.sh start

That works .. thanks (I could have thought of it myself ...)

It would be useful if iventoy.sh issues a warning if it is not started by the root user

The latest release will show a tip about sudo.
