Permission Denied in Terminal?

[Skyler]

Hiya all, I’m trying to get Rocksmith 2014 to work with Manjaro. Game launches just fine however there is a mod I need to work (RSAsio) which allows me to use my audio interface instead of their propriety cable.
The mod has been confirmed working on linux however to use it I need to use wine asio and jack. Both of these are installed and working as I have Ableton Live running fine.
The mod sees wine asio but fails to open. I encountered this with Ableton and running the included “wineasio-register” fixed this. I’m now trying the same with Rocksmith and Proton however when I try to run it in the terminal I get this error
screenshot removed
Here I am running the wineasio-register scrip but directing it to protons prefix. I also tried with Rocksmiths prefix with the same result

However as you can see I have been denied permission as sudo and I do not know why. I have had this command run successfully without sudo when I was setting up Ableton Live with only difference being it has a different prefix located at “/home/skyler/Games/ableton-live/” (This was installed with Lutris)

I am at a loss and any help would be appreciated. I have also included my RSAsio log and Steam log from opening Rocksmith just in case

I am still a Linux noob so if I have missed anything please let me know :))

Upload screenshots to external image sharing sites and post the link to them here.

From what I know how wine works (or it’s derivatives):

it’s akin to a Windows installation

I don’t think that one can “link” two or more of these and have them work together.
It all has to be in one prefix - in one and the same fake Windows environment.

To get wineasio to work you have to register with each prefix you want wineasio running. I confirmed this by installing the windows version of steam into a new wine prefix in Lutris. I downloaded rocksmith from that and at first it didn’t work. However when I ran the wineasio register with that new prefix it all worked fine.

However for some reason I can’t do this with native steam installation as every time I run the same command (apart from where the wine prefix is) it fails.

I’m unable to attach the link to the screenshot so here’s the terminal output

sudo env WINEPREFIX=~ /home/skyler/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1493710/pfx/ wineasio-register
[sudo] password for skyler: 
env: ‘/home/skyler/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1493710/pfx/’: Permission denied

there is no screenshot
(post was edited in the mean time)

and

I still operate on my knowledge of what and how wine operates.

one prefix - not two or more interacting

@Skyler

sudo env WINEPREFIX=~ /home/skyler/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1493710/pfx/ wineasio-register

There’s a space between ~ and /home. You don’t need the ~ it means '/home`

sudo env WINEPREFIX=/home/skyler/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1493710/pfx/ wineasio-register

Just dropping by to say you probably should never use wine with sudo (or as root).

Doing so will also break your permissions.

NEVER run Wine as root! Doing so gives Windows programs (and viruses) full access to your computer and every piece of media attached to it. Running with sudo also has these same risks but with the added bonus of breaking the permissions on your ~/.wine folder in the process. If you have run Wine with sudo you need to fix the permission errors as described in the next question, and then run winecfg to set Wine up again. You should always run Wine as the normal user you use to login.
