I keep getting this error message when starting up EventStore. Is this a permissions issue?
Error while reading drive info for path /tmp/EventStore/2015-04-06_23.02.32.094598-Node2113.
Message: The drive name does not exist
Parameter name: driveName
Things like setup and operating system may help here.
Ah yes.
Arch Linux with 3.19.2 kernel
Running ES 3.0.3 with the ./run-node.sh script.
Wondering if I should run this on a VM with Ubuntu.
Do you get it if its not in /tmp/? Maybe arch is doing something odd
with /tmp file system?
So when I run ./run-node.sh the first few lines I get back are:
ES VERSION: 3.0.3.0 (master/a1382252dd1ed0554ddb04015cdb2cbc1b0a65c1, Fri, 13 Mar 2015 13:56:05 -0400)
OS: Unknown (Unix 3.19.2.1)
RUNTIME: 3.12.0 (tarball) (64-bit)
GC: 2 GENERATIONS
LOGS: /tmp/EventStore/2015-04-07_17.43.34.963577-Node2113-logs
How do I go about changing the dir where logs are stored?
thats also where your db is stored.
try --db --help lists command line options
eg ./run-node.sh --db foo
Fixed! ./run-node.sh --log ~/eventstore/es-logs --db ~/eventstore/es-db
Thanks for the assistance Greg.
So I think whats happening here is Arch is doing some weird things
with the /tmp file system. I will research into whats happening as we
should at least not error here (just ignore it)
Glad I found an edge case. 
Whats interesting is arch is apparently working differently than
ubuntu and centos etc on this one
I know Arch gets a bad wrap for doing things differently from most distros. But I won’t trade it for another.
