[Opensim-users] 'Access to the path "/" is denied' errors when trying to run OpenSim

[Melanie]

I don't recall how I wrote "Glob", it may well always try to
generate absolute paths, so that would be incompatible with using
SELINUX at all.

However, there is a workaround. There is a utility called
"configger.exe" that you can use to, on your own local system, merge
all the config files under config-include into a single OpenSim.ini
file. As soon as you have no more Include-* directives in your
configuration, this error will go away.
