Wrong home directory

hmlendea opened this issue · comments

On a fresh install of Arch Linux for ARM I get the folowing error:

[!] There is a problem with the COLORS_FILE '/home/alarm/.config/alsi/alsi.colors': No such file or directory

I've renamed the alarm user to something else but alsi seems to still be looking for alarm
I've checked in all places and the user seems to have been reamed correctly.

I think it must be something that I missed though, because I configured 2 Raspberry Pis and only one of them has this issue. What environment variables does alsi use? $HOME and $USER are both set correctly to the new username.

Either delete the directory ~/.config/alsi or edit the paths in the configuration file ~/.config/alsi/alsi.conf.

Thanks. The conf file seems to have had a lot of paths pointing to the old home directory. Deleting it as suggested solved the problem.
