### Description
I want start kamailio as `root` user with carrierroute module.
and get this error message
```
[root@ip-172-22-6-233 config]# kamailio -DD -E
0(13687) INFO: <core> [core/sctp_core.c:74]: sctp_core_check_support(): SCTP API

```
I checked file permissions
```sh
[root@ip-172-22-6-233 config]# ls -l /etc/kamailio/carrierroute.conf
-rw-rw----. 1 kamailio kamailio 403 Jun 23 18:07 /etc/kamailio/carrierroute.conf
```
Looks as file permissions as expected.
### Troubleshooting
Issue related to a difference of process user/group and file user/group.
#### Reproduction
1) create `/etc/kamailio/carrierroute.conf` with kamailio user/group;
2) change file permissions to 660;
3) start kamailio as root user
#### Debugging Data
none
#### Log Messages
none
#### SIP Traffic
none
### Possible Solutions
Add information about the expected user group permissions, like
```
config file /etc/kamailio/carrierroute.conf not writable or not owned by "root"
user and "root" group
```
