As long as `this issue in Rocket.Chat <https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/issues/7465>`_ is not fixed, we need a little modification to get file uploads to work.

Make ``~/rocket.chat/programs/server/packages/jalik_ufs.js`` writable:

::

[isabell@stardust ~]$ chmod +w ~/rocket.chat/programs/server/packages/jalik_ufs.js
[isabell@stardust ~]$

Edit ``~/rocket.chat/programs/server/packages/jalik_ufs.js`` and replace the line ``tmpDir: '/tmp/ufs',`` with ``tmpDir: process.env.HOME+'/tmp/ufs',``.

Remove the write permission:
::

[isabell@stardust ~]$ chmod -w ~/rocket.chat/programs/server/packages/jalik_ufs.js
[isabell@stardust ~]$

.. note:: Alternatively you can do this in one step with ``sed``:
::

[isabell@stardust ~]$ sed -i "s#tmpDir: '/tmp/ufs',#tmpDir: process\.env\.HOME+'/tmp/ufs',#g" ~/rocket.chat/programs/server/packages/jalik_ufs.js
