Undenied permission with brew?

[faho]

That looks to me like it's $HOME/.config/fish, and that fish tries to use it to write its temporary files and it's not working. You should check the permissions on that directory (ls -ld ~/.config ~/.config/fish), and if it's not owned by your user chown it, or if it's just not writable chmod it.

Hi, thanks for the very quick reply. This solved the message error. But still the prompt and the functions/variable I have set in ~/ .config/fish/ they are not picked up. These were working on my other laptop. I restarted the terminal and tried also to exec fish --login without success

If the permissions for one directory got messed up, it's likely the permissions for files inside also got messed up. Check that the files all have the correct permissions and owner as well.

Yup Checked! Seems all goo

Other than that ~/.config is still owned by root - which is generally an issue but shouldn't cause problems reading these files, I think.

Run

set --show XDG_CONFIG_HOME fish_function_path

[nicdelillo-fitprime]

Ah right! I can change it if need.

set --show XDG_CONFIG_HOME fish_function_path
$fish_function_path: set in global scope, unexported, with 6 elements
$fish_function_path[1]: |/Users/nicola.delillo/.config/fish/functions|
$fish_function_path[2]: |/opt/homebrew/etc/fish/functions|
$fish_function_path[3]: |/Users/nicola.delillo/.local/share/fish/vendor_functions.d|
$fish_function_path[4]: |/opt/homebrew/Cellar/fish/3.7.1/share/fish/vendor_functions.d|
$fish_function_path[5]: |/opt/homebrew/share/fish/vendor_functions.d|
$fish_function_path[6]: |/opt/homebrew/Cellar/fish/3.7.1/share/fish/functions|

This includes "/Users/nicola.delillo/.config/fish/functions" as the first path, that means your cdl function or your fish_prompt should be picked up from there.

• unless, of course, something in your config changes these after those functions are loaded.

[nicdelillo-fitprime]

So I have checked the cdl function and works. The only thing it does not work is the config. I will look into that since I just cp those files from another working fish machine. I'd say this issue is the solved!
