Directories don't are created. Is config file structure changed?

This occurred in debian 8, jessie with version 1.3.1. With the version 1.2 its works

In ubuntu 14.04.2 is fine with both versions.

[vysheng]

you should create directories manually. Telegram-cli doesn't create them

[gnumoksha]

Hi @vysheng, thanks for replying.

I executed the same process in both enviroments, debian 8 and ubuntu 14.04.2. Many times. Only in debian 8 i get this error. The directory is created in ubuntu.

Creating the directory:

Perhaps is a lib error?

[vysheng]

no, it is not related to library. It is clearly error opening auth_file. Try to add -U root key. Check that folder from config exists

[gnumoksha]

root@debian8:/usr/src/tg/viacron# cat telegram.config 
default_profile = "viacron";

viacron = {
    config_directory = "/usr/src/tg/viacron/";
};
root@debian8:/usr/src/tg/viacron# ./telegram-cli -k tg-server.pub -c telegram.config -U root

The problem is that the user telegramd existed in the system. I suppose that telegram-cli was changing to him.

Thanks for help, @vysheng
