Filepro on Centos 8

[Jose Lerebours]

I thought that a primary rule was to never run anything as root.

Why would you want/need to run your filePro application as root? Why not 
just as a regular user?

All that said it is strange that 'root' cannot see the files, specially 
since once you enter the filePro environment (run the binaries), you 
should be "virtually running as filepro" regardless of user code.  Am I 
mistaken?

Have you tried running `setperms`?
