From the limited information you are giving, my guess is that
nhrpd doesn't have permissions to access the VICI socket. nhrpd is
probably configured as part of FRR/Quagga with permissions to
access /var/run/frr or /var/run/quagga only. Whereas the vici
socket, according to <br>

is: <span style="color: rgb(54, 0, 12); font-family: Verdana,

Give nhrpd permissions to access to this file and you should be good
to.<br>
