Meteor 0.9.0 Error: EACCES, permission denied '/Users/Jasper/.meteorsession'

Question

After updating to meteor 0.9.0 I get the following error when launching an app to localhost

 Error: EACCES, permission denied '/Users/Jasper/.meteorsession'

Starting the meteor session with sudo meteor fixes this problem but I was wondering what causes this and how it can be fixed.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Just delete the .meteorsession and restart meteor and it will create a new .meteorsession directory.

Run the following code in your terminal:

rm -rf /Users/Jasper/.meteorsession
