No worries, turns out It’s configured as to check

<requireInstallationByRootUser>1</requireInstallationByRootUser>

, It seems to be resolved. Please try this with the latest version of Lucee. If the issue persists, I will reopen the ticket. For now, I am closing this issue.

, I tested this ticket with Lucee version 6.0.1.83. However, while I am not running the Linux installer as root, it displays the error: 'This installer requires root privileges. Please become a superuser before executing the installer.' Is this behavior expected? could you please confirm.
