Problem
I installed lampp in my fresh Ubuntu 18.04 computer. I'm using Gitkraken and i want to clone a repository inside /opt/lampp/htdocs, but Gitkraken gui shows me a permission error (Could not read the contents of opt) when i try to navigate to /opt or hardcode /opt/lampp/htdocs.
What i have tried
1. First i followed the steps from this question:
sudo chown -R username:username /opt/lampp/htdocs
2. Then i tried chmod
sudo chmod 755 -R /opt/lampp/htdocs
My folder owner is correct
// htdocs owner:
drwxrwxr-x 6 myusername myusername 4096 sep 20 23:27 /opt/lampp/htdocs/
// Gitkraken is in:
/snap/girkraken
I don't know why i can't access that folder if my user is the owner. I'm running out of ideas. Any tips?
Thanks!
