Issues with starting a headless server on centos 7

Hello, I did a fresh install of centos 7, then followed the the wiki.factorio.com guide to a headless server, and it went fine until the create/start part: I keep getting this error:
15.751 Error FileUtil.cpp:284: Can't remove /opt/factorio/temp/currently-playing: No such file or directory
15.751 Error Util.cpp:57: boost::filesystem::create_directory: Permission denied: "/opt/factorio/temp/currently-playing"
I am still relatively new to Linux, so does mean I did something wrong or is there a workaround I haven't found?

Did you run
before trying to start it? You need to run the program while logged in as the owner of the files.

yes I did and when I made sure I got this no matter if I used a file I moved to it or created(where I got the first errors) using --create ./saves/newgame.zip

It will create a .zip file, and I did check in the /opt/factorio/temp/ for currently-playing and it was not there.

Ok, this command should fix it. Run while logged in as root.
Code: Select all
chown -R factorio:factorio /opt/factorio

One problem with that: there is no file/folder there, it created a folder under home... and after adjusting that it still spits out a permission denied error.
