## Troubleshooting
52+
53+
### Spacemacs reports error like "Lisp directory /tmp/.mount_emacsxxxxx/share/emacs/29.4/etc/: no such directory"
54+
55+
On each execution, Emacs.AppImage mounts itself in a unique temporary directory (/tmp/.mount_emacsxxxxx) and sets environment variables like `EMACSDATA` so that emacs can find data files correctly.
56+
Apparently, Spacemacs would cache environment variables in `.spacemacs.env`, which would break Emacs.AppImage. To fix this, delete related entires in `.spacemacs.env` and restart.
