MeshChat vs PrivateTmp
@K7FPV
Trevor, would you please change MeshChat to avoid conflicting with PrivateTmp (in recent versions of Linux)? I suggest changing the installed /usr/lib/cgi-bin/meshchatconfig.pm file to contain $meshchat_path = "/run/meshchat"; instead of /tmp/meshchat, as suggested here. It works for me.

Conflicts with PrivateTmp cause "Error Sending Message: Could not get Lock" in MeshChat, as reported here.

Anyone know if /run is available and writeable on most versions of AREDN?

/run was introduced in 2013,
/run was introduced in 2013, in Debian version 7.0 (Wheezy). So it's available in every version of Pi OS and many recent versions of Ubuntu.

/var/run is a reasonable alternative that's been available much longer.
