Can't install Daedalus 2.3 on Ubuntu 18.04

English Community Technical Support
#1

Hello guys,

I downloaded the linux bin, did

chmod +x *.bin

but then

sudo ./*.bin

results in

error: could not set permissions on ‘/home/alessandro/.daedalus/nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user’ to 755: Operation not permitted

I tried the solution suggested here

but it did not help I just end up with a dat folder and two files, run and env. Executing run seels to go fine but in the end I still have the version 2.2 of Daedalus.

Thanks a lot guys, for any help

If you ran it with sudo, the files were already created as root user and not a normal user (perhaps also explains permission denied).

Best not to use sudo when installing this. Just install it in as your regular user.
