ANSWERED Eddie not starting on Ubuntu

[cliffhanger 0]

Hi

Trying to get Eddie started on latest Ubuntu. I am running from a terminal to try to get a readout. Upon startup I am asked for the root password then nothing. All I get is :

2019.06.22 20:39:16 - Eddie version: 2.16.3 / linux_x64, System: Linux, Name: Unknown, Version: Linux alienware-r17 4.20.8 #1 SMP Thu May 9 20:49:04 BST 2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux, Mono/.Net: 5.20.1.27 (tarball Sun 16 Jun 13:35:45 BST 2019); Framework: v4.0.30319
. 2019.06.22 20:39:16 - Restarting with admin privileges (method:pkexec-policy).

If I run strace to start Eddie (end of readout after root password is entered) I get:

wait4(-1, . 2019.06.22 20:39:08 - Eddie version: 2.16.3 / linux_x64, System: Linux, Name: Unknown, Version: Linux alienware-r17 4.20.8 #1 SMP Thu May 9 20:49:04 BST 2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux, Mono/.Net: 5.20.1.27 (tarball Sun 16 Jun 13:35:45 BST 2019); Framework: v4.0.30319

Any help or advice please

Does it work when you start with sudo?

Thanks. 
Yes if i ran it from root I did get a startup, but the main issue was Mono.   It was in /opt and not /usr.   I am now running Eddie from a self contained directory, ie. not installed system wide.
