[9.0] Odoo not starting because of data_dir in config

Question

I re-cloned Odoo 9, keeping the same config.  When I restarted through the start-stop-daemon, Odoo wouldn't start.  I commented out each line in the config until it would start to find the offending line.  It turns out the data_dir parameter causes odoo not to start.

data_dir = /opt/odoo9-live/.local/share/Odoo

If I comment out the line, the server starts.  If I uncomment it, it doesn't.  I believe this was a standard line but don't remember, it has been a few months since I installed Odoo 9.

As the name indicates, this is the data directory of odoo. But files that related to the instance you are trying to access are not in this directory.
when you mention 'data_dir' in config, odoo only checks that location. when you comment it, odoo will find its path,
if you are creating a new instance..i hope it will work with the current uncommented  'data_dir' conf.
lemme know am i right
Thanks

So this time when I changed ownership to odoo_user:odoo_user, odoo started. So it seems to have been a permissions issue, which makes sense as odoo is running under odoo_user and needs permission to access that directory.
