If i modify service

```auto
[Service]
Type=simple
#User=kibana
#Group=kibana
PrivateTmp=true
 
Environment=KBN_HOME=/usr/share/kibana
Environment=KBN_PATH_CONF=/etc/kibana
Environment=RESTART_ON_UPGRADE="true"
 
ExecStart=/usr/share/kibana/bin/kibana --allow-root
#ExecStart=/usr/share/kibana/bin/kibana

```

I don't have problem with root user.

I try to change owner with chown -R kibana:kibana /usr/share/kibana /var/lib/kibana, same error `EACCES: permission denied, stat '/nonexistent/.config/puppeteer'`.  
I don't find a file/directory '.config'.

</div>

Finally, i find a solution (when i read strace output)

I had a file /usr/share/kibana/.puppeteerrc.cjs with this content

```csj
/**
 * Source https://pptr.dev/guides/configuration
 */

const {join} = require('path');

/**
 * @type {import("puppeteer").Configuration}
 */
module.exports = {
  // Changes the cache location for Puppeteer.
  cacheDirectory: join(__dirname, '.cache', 'puppeteer'),
};

```
