Problem: Can not register runner with pro Version

[kaiszy]

Issue

I try to register a runner like described in the Documentation (https://docs.semaphoreui.com/administration-guide/runners/):

$ /home/user# semaphore runner setup --config /etc/semaphore/runner-config.json
Semaphore server URL: https://semaphore.local/

Path to the file where runner token will be stored: /opt/semaphoreRunner/

Do you have runner token? (yes/no) (default no): yes

Runner token: mytoken

Running: mkdir -p /etc/semaphore..
Configuration written to /etc/semaphore/runner-config.json..
Loading config
Validating config
 Re-launch this program pointing to the configuration file

./semaphore runner --config /etc/semaphore/runner-config.json

 To run as daemon:

nohup ./semaphore runner --config /etc/semaphore/runner-config.json &

$ /home/user# ls -la /opt/semaphoreRunner/
total 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jan 15 10:32 .
drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 Nov  6 17:01 ..
$ /home/user# cat /etc/semaphore/runner-config.json
{
        "web_host": "https://semaphore.local/",
        "runner": {
                "token_file": "/opt/semaphoreRunner/"
        }
 }

The token_file will not be written (access rights for the directory are ok). When i start the runner i get:
