    Hi All,

    I try to install MySensors on my rpi3B.

    I have run these commands:

    git clone https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors.git 
    cd MySensors
    ./configure --my-transport=rf24 --my-gateway=serial --my-serial-is-pty --my-serial-port=/dev/ttyMySensorsGateway
    make```
    
    I get this error in "bin/mysgw":
    

    Jun 01 20:10:37 INFO Config file /etc/mysensors.conf does not exist, creating new file.
    Jun 01 20:10:37 ERROR Unable to create config file /etc/mysensors.conf.
    Jun 01 20:10:37 ERROR Error opening config file "/etc/mysensors.conf".

    
    Any idea? sudo make or sudo make install does not make any difference

      @tsjippy did you run sudo ./bin/mysgw ?

      Could you post the full log of what you did and what output you got?
