Permissions error in Cache directory while chosing bootable disk.

ihubgit opened this issue · comments

Using latest version of Mist (0.9.1.) on M2 Mac running Ventura 13.5.
Gave full disk access permissions to Mist.
Trying to get latest bootable Ventura version 13.5.1.
Erased usb to MacoS Journaled format.

Getting error msg :

Error: You don’t have permission to save the file “042-25643” in the folder “Cache”.

@ihubgit are you able to confirm the ownership + permissions of your Cache directory with the following command:

ls -al /path/to/Mist/Cache

The user should be your username, the group should be wheel, and the directory permissions should be rwxr-xr-x / 0755.

You can find the location of your Cache directory in the app settings:

Settings

Alternatively, you can just delete the Cache directory manually and try downloading again 👍

Ok giving read and write permissions (even through Finder window) solved the downloading part of the problem.
