I installed i2p for Ubuntu using the method here: https://geti2p.com/en/download/debian
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:i2p-maintainers/i2p
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install i2p
i configured and set i2p and it seems to work fine
However, when i try adding a file or folder to seed in i2p snark and create a torrent, i get this message:
"Cannot create a torrent for the nonexistent data: <file or folder path>"
Maybe its a permission thing, how can i fix this ?

Re: Cannot create a torrent for the nonexistent data
I read the "Post-install work" in https://geti2p.com/en/download/debian
And the reason was cuz i enabled i2p as a service using sudo
I followed this instruction:
""on demand" using the i2prouter script. Simply run "i2prouter start" from a command prompt. (Note: Do not use sudo or run it as root!)"
and it now adding torrents to seed works fine
