Summary	0002932: Setting server log file in IndiStarter setup ask permission to access Documents directory
Description	IndiStarter version 0.9.94-4104-e6ad9b65 After setting a directory path for server log file setting and restarting IndiStarter, it keeps asking permission to access Document directory but was stuck after allowing it. After a restart it keeps asking for the permission, again and again until I removed the path in the server log file setting.
Steps To Reproduce	Set a path below Documents directory for server log file in setting, restart IndiStarter
Tags	No tags attached.
