I restored my HA after migrating it from proxmox to Unraid. For some reason this addon fails to start.

Please give an ls -lR of /config/lms on your restored box and original if possible. Phill

I had the same Problem:
As you requested here is the output with denied permission after the restored backup:
config-lms-denied-permissions-after-backup-restore.txt

And here is an output after deleting the /config/lms/ directory and reinstalling the LMS:
config-lms-after-new-installation.txt

@mhenlo thankyou most useful.

So I would say that the restore is not restoring the permissions of the original files (they have changed user ownership) on the restored system from the original restore.

I will have a think, to see if we can work round this though deleting /config/lms/addon/fixed_owner may be enough

I have the same problem. After restore from backup, addon can't started with permission denied errors.
If I delete /config/lms/addon/fixed_owner I got errors:

Slim::Networking::IO::Select::__ANON__ (130) Error: Select task failed calling Slim::Networking::Async::HTTP::_http_read_body: DBD::SQLite::st execute failed: attempt to write a readonly database at /usr/share/perl5/Slim/Utils/DbCache.pm line 77.

And many more errors about " write a readonly database".
