Weird, it seems to be choking on permissions for this folder:

/home/chatuser/.lounge

Maybe that is accidentally owned by root? Try

$ ls -la /home/chatuser/.lounge

And see. You can chown it back to 'chatuser'

$ sudo chown -R chatuser /home/chatuser/.lounge

I'm still getting "permission denied" even after I ran

sudo chown -R chatuser /home/chatuser/.lounge

I also ran a variety of other sudo chmod and sudo chown commands I found online before I even asked you because I hate to keep bothering you with every little thing! :(

It's possible that you are getting a new permission denied error, but let's make sure this .lounge folder gets squared away. Did you get the permissions changed there? From your last comment, yes, root owns all of it.

We need this to not say root at all:

 ls -la /home/chatuser/.lounge

It's not a big deal if you just want to run this as user 'reddit'.

Running it as user 'reddit' I get "no such file or directory'
