User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Fedora; Linux x86_64; rv:66.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/66.0 Build Identifier: An automatic update to netdata-1.28.0-2.el7.x86_64 last Sunday left the Netdata GUI non-functional, displaying only the message in the Summary field. However, we have Prometheus set up to query Netdata's API, and that continued to function normally. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start with the previous version, netdata-1.26.0-2.el7.x86_64 (ditto netdata-conf, & netdata-data) 2. Upgrade to the newest version, netdata-1.28.0-2.el7.x86_64 3. Examine http://<your server>:19999 to see the error message Actual Results: Web UI says: "Access to file is not permitted: /usr/share/netdata/web/index.html" Expected Results: Web UI ought to draw pretty graphs, instead of an error message. This affected roughly 30 CentOS7 machines. I instituted a workaround which resolved the problem, but I don't want this to happen again at the next update: chown -R root:root /usr/share/netdata/ After instituting the workaround above, I used "yum downgrade netdata netdata-conf netdata-data", then "yum update -y", but this did not reproduce the problem. Further, I used "yum remove <all 3 packages>" and found that /usr/share/netdata still existed. I proceeded to remove /usr/share/netdata/, then reinstalled the latest, restored my config, and finally restarted netdata. The problem came back.
Hi, You're right I only test new release in fresh install (container) and not update. I modify group in last release to be the same as upstream, aka change group to netdata for dir /usr/share/netdata/web and in settings file /etc/netdata/netdata.conf. So fresh install works because settings file and dir group are equal. In case of update, the settings file is marked as noreplace, so it will not be updated with yum update process and I forgot this point. If you restore your config, "web files group" is set to root and mismatch with current group dir. web files group = netdata As an immediate workaround, I propose you to update netdata to last release and run the following command sed -i -e '/web files group/ s/root/netdata/' /etc/netdata/netdata.conf I try to find a definitive and transparent for user solution for this problem.

I just did a completely fresh install on an F33 system that never had netdata before and got this error. I had also noticed that during install dnf complained about there not being a netdata group, although after dnf completed the group did exist. I resolved the problem for my case by 'chown -R netdata.netdata /usr/share/netdata/web' AND changing 'run as user = ' from 'root' to 'netdata' in the config file. But clearly something is still not right in the RPM packages. Maybe re-open this bug.
Hi Jürgen The problem is different, netdata-data is installed before netdata, and then netdata user is not created yet (created by the netdata package). I fix it asap. Thanks to report this. Didier.
