Zabbix Scheduled Reports encountering an error.

[JSiiACC]

Hello! I've got a Zabbix server running on Ubuntu 20.04 and I've ran into a problem with the scheduled reports.

When I attempt to test the reporting action I receive this error.

• Cannot fetch data: chrome failed to start:
• Sorry, home directories outside of /home are not currently supported.
• See https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/11209 for details.
• .

The server that Ubuntu is running on has a headless client of Chrome installed along with the zabbix-web-service. The service is also on the same server that's containing the host.

I'm really puzzled about what could be causing this, as the error suddenly started coming up. I managed to get about two successful tests through before this error started coming up.

You have to bind mount the current zabbix home directory (possibly /var/lib/zabbix) to /home/zabbix.

This is explained in more detail here: https://snapcraft.io/docs/home-outside-home

After researching similar issues, I discovered users aren't part of the cgroup unless logged in. I did the following to keep the zabbix user logged in.
sudo loginctl enable-linger zabbix
