Fail to run after using sudo

Hi!

I normally run eventstore with “eventstore --run-projections=System” but trying to run queries, macos throw a security complain: ““libjs1.dylib” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.”

So I ran “sudo eventstore --run-projections=System”. This did not fix the issue. I wen to system preferences > security > general and gave access to libjs1.dylib and the Query ran and returned no value.

I realized all the data from event store was gone.

I though maybe it becase sudo? I ran without sudo and now I get this error:

(I tried to ran with sudo again and the program starts without problem, but with no data)

I’m guessing sudo changes default paths, and doesn’t get reversed without sudo.

Additional information I think is pertinent: I installed eventstore with the brew cask formula.
