This error has been seen when the ownerships are wrong. Try setting ownership as follows: chown sawtooth:sawtooth /var/lib/sawtooth /var/lib/sawtooth/*

Another possibility is you need to start the Sawtooth processes as user sawtooth . For example: sudo -u sawtooth sawtooth-validator -vv

  • What are the permissions? (Run `ls -la /var/lib/sawtooth`). Are you running as user `sawtooth`? Sometimes, starting your Sawtooth processes in a writable directory helps (for example, `cd /tmp` ) Also, did you restart Sawtooth after changing permissions? – Dan Anderson Nov 16 '18 at 18:52
