We are working on the underlying issue, but the work around is to change your user status by running this command from the CLI: sudo su -

After that you should be able to edit the file.

If you want to edit the config.py file you will need an editor.
(You are trying to run a python script with bash, that will not work.)
If you have vi installed, you can try:
vi /usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/FreeTAKServer-UI/config.py

Did you install with ZT installer?

I did

Using the sudo nano worked to get me into the ability to check the configuration. Thanks for the help on this, now how do I know if I need to update any of the settings? And thank you everyone for your help, I am new to all of this so learning as I go.

I believe this is a documentation issue.
The pages where reconfiguration is described are:

• https://freetakteam.github.io/FreeTAKServer-User-Docs/Installation/mechanism/Ansible/ZeroTouchInstall/#reconfiguration
• https://freetakteam.github.io/FreeTAKServer-User-Docs/administration/Operation/fts-config/
• https://freetakteam.github.io/FreeTAKServer-User-Docs/Troubleshooting/fts-server/
• https://freetakteam.github.io/FreeTAKServer-User-Docs/Troubleshooting/fts-ui-server/

These pages have been recently updated (2024 May 9).
Can we pick up this discussion about the documentation on the Discord channel #doc-dev
