wg-quick: `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf' does not exist

Hi there,

I receive the following error on Fedora Linux:

wg-quick: `/etc/wireguard/wg0.conf' does not exist

It seems to be the line chmod 600 /etc/wireguard.

I fixed it through the following commands:

chmod 700 /etc/wireguard
chmod 600 /etc/wireguard/wg0.conf

Not 100% sure if this is safe, thus not a pull request. In my opinion it should also protect the private key in wg0.conf or is there a difference?

are you sure you didn't manually create that directory without +x by accident?

maybe it's a umask in your shell?

See line 212 of your script:

chmod 600 -R /etc/wireguard/

If I am not mistaken that sets 600 for everything? Should that maybe be replaced by:

chmod 700 /etc/wireguard
chmod 600 /etc/wireguard/*
