screen Cannot open your terminal ‘/dev/pts/0’ – please check

This happens because you may have done a sudo su user_name and then fired the screen command.

There are 2 ways to fix this.

  1. Login directly to “user_name” via ssh.
  2. Take ownership of the shell by typing script /dev/null as the user user_name and then type screen
