[Arch Linux] Issue with a file: (install.log), from the HyprV2 desktop environment by user "SolDoesTech" on GitHub.
Hello Linux community,
I am new to installing custom desktop environments on Arch Linux, and I want to use the Hyprv2 environment from "SolDoesTech" on GitHub. However, during the installation process after installing the necessary resources and running the command to open the file:
$./set-hypr
to proceed with the installation of the environment, I encounter an error that says:
#[ERROR] hyperland install had failed, please check the install.log.
After this, I proceed to check the file to see if there is any error or issue with:
$nano /etc/install.log
The file opens but appears empty with the message "permission denied."
I have searched different sites for a possible solution but I can't find anything related to this specific problem. Could someone please help me with this issue? I would greatly appreciate any prompt assistance.

Welcome to the jungle.
Were I you I would try to close or delete two of the threads, and combine the information in a single thread under ARCH LINUX.

That is probably wrong. The file may contain some info, but you need to read it as root (or another user). permission denied does not mean the file is empty.
#### Check for yay ####
ISYAY=/sbin/yay
if [ -f "$ISYAY" ]; then
echo -e "$COK - yay was located, moving on."
else
echo -e "$CWR - Yay was NOT located"

I cringe a little when I see new arch users using an automated something to build and install non repo software.
Thanks that worked and I managed to fix the problem with the "install.log" file.
But when it gave me the option to "start with desktop environment now (y/n)
And I clicked yes, but nothing happened, I figured that maybe it would be fixed by restarting the pc, but when it started the following problem appears:
--sthypc: /home/sthypc: change directory failed: no such file directory.
Logging in with home = "/".

What could I do in this case to solve it? Please.
Step one would be to check the existence and permissions of /home/sthypc!
