Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ntop The default rights for the /var/lib/ntop directory are set as follows: drwxr-x--- 2 ntop root 1024 Apr 11 12:46 ntop However, the ntop daemon only wants to run under the root account which does not have write access to the directory, hence it cannot create some required subdirectories and fails to load correctly. The command ''sudo chmod 770 -R /var/lib/ntop'' resolves the problem.
