 ### Step 5: Move jar to desired location
 
 After the build process, a `.jar` file will be generated in the `build/libs` directory.
 You can move this file to a desired location, for example, `/opt/Stirling-PDF/`.
 You must also move the Script folder within the Stirling-PDF repo that you have downloaded to this directory.

 ### Step 6: Other files
 #### OCR
 If you plan to use the OCR (Optical Character Recognition) functionality, you might need to install language packs for Tesseract if running non-english scanning.
 
 ##### Installing Language Packs

 Manual:
 
 1. Download the desired language pack(s) by selecting the `.traineddata` file(s) for the language(s) you need.
 2. Place the `.traineddata` files in the Tesseract tessdata directory: `/usr/share/tessdata`

 ### Step 7: Run Stirling-PDF
 
+Those who have pushed to the root directory, run the following commands:
+
 ```bash
 ./gradlew bootRun
 or
 java -jar /opt/Stirling-PDF/Stirling-PDF-*.jar
 ```
 
+Since libreoffice, soffice, and conversion tools have their dbus_tmp_dir set as `dbus_tmp_dir="/run/user/$(id -u)/libreoffice-dbus"`, you might get the following error when using their endpoints:
+```
+[Thread-7] INFO  s.s.SPDF.utils.ProcessExecutor - mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/run/user/1501’: Permission denied
+```
+To resolve this, before starting the Stirling-PDF, you have to set the environment variable to a directory you have write access to by using the following commands:
