Getting the same error.
OS - Ubuntu 17.10
Running Unreal 4.17
Fixed it.
This helped:
$ chown -R user: filepath //mention user and the path to the directory
$ su user
$ make
Do not use 'sudo' or 'root user' while executing make command as it leads to another error where it shows:
"Refusing to run with the root privileges."
Oh my god! I was looking to compile it and couldn't because of that same error as AmbFlye. Thank you very much, mashrin. You saved me!!!!
@mashrin I am wondering if you used "user" or if you replaced that with the actual username of the respective machine. Thank you in advance.
