Description

sorry, bug still there:

Description: when starting stubby it fails to open /var/etc/stubby/stubby.yml due to insufficient permissions. Using chown and chmod to give root full access makes no difference.

stubby version: 0.3.0
OpenWrt 19.07.3 r11063-85e04e9f46 / LuCI openwrt-19.07 branch git-20.136.49537-fb2f363
device: modded AVM 7412

Temporary workaround: SSH into router and launch it with command stubby -g

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure when stubby opens /var/etc/stubby/stubby.yml, then compare it with launching stubby using the reported stubby -g workaround. Trace the package startup path and determine what causes the permission denial; done means stubby starts normally without manually changing ownership or permissions.
