Building openmodelica as root.

Building openmodelica as root.

Hello,

When I try to build openmodelica as root it stops with a warning that openmodelica should not be run as root. Can we not build it as root?

No, you can not build omc as root.

Re: Building openmodelica as root.

What is the reason for this restriction?

Re: Building openmodelica as root.

Because omc is usually run as a TCP server. Running as root has security problems.
