just wanted to ask why we should not use “sudo tutor local quickstart”. I understand that there will be some issue with system security but what if I am running this on my local system only?
Also, please tell me if I can’t use this command then what is the alternative for this, because this is the only thing is working with system.
Hi @Swetabhsuman8! Technically speaking, it’s quite possible to run tutor with sudo, but it’s strongly not recommended. It’s like crossing the Pacific in a car: you can do it, but you’re going to face many unexpected problems. From the top of my head, you’re going to face permission problems with the local edx-platform repo, and it’s going to be quite confusing to manage platform settings.
This topic is susceptible to generate many incorrect answers, like the one above. I’m going to close it now. If you have further Docker permission issues, please refer to StackOverflow.
