'Permission denied' when running snap applications on Ubuntu 16.04 as a LDAP user












1















Is it possible to run snap applications on Ubuntu 16.04 as a LDAP user?



I always get 'permission denied' and I don't know what to do.



$ sudo snap install postman
postman 6.7.1 from Postman, Inc. (postman-inc✓) installed

$ postman
cannot create user data directory: /home/DOMAIN/user/snap/postman/81: Permission denied


It happens for an every snap application, not just Postman.



EDIT:



Same for installing with the --classic flag.

  • Does it also happen if the ldap user's home directory is just /home/<user>? That being said, you should probably post this question in forum.snapcraft.io

  • I'm not sure if I can check it on my work computer without everything to be broken
