So, users ARE able to write to /home/user/.sage/meataxe, right? Then I don't see what goes wrong here. Is there a symbolic link involved? I could imagine that MeatAxe needs to be given an absolute path. >> That would explain why the files are missing (because they are >> created when missing, which requires write permission). > > Is there a way to explicitly trigger the creation of such a file? > Maybe some error pops up that reveals more information. In very old MeatAxe versions, there was an executable called maketab that was responsible for table creation. But now it is just a library function. The trigger is: Create a matrix over a non-prime finite field of size <255 in odd characteristic. Anyway, I created #28188 and would appreciate getting some explanation on the specific situation on CoCalC and some feedback on the potential ways out (such as: Keep the arithmetic tables in memory, not on disk).
