API: Could not open command file

Hi

When I try to execute a system command through the API I get
# curl -XPOST "https://nagios/nagiosxi/api/v1/system/c ... ikey=mykey" -d "cmd=ADD_HOST_COMMENT;localhost;1;%user%;This is a test comment"
{"error":"ERROR: Could not open command file"}
Nagios 5.5.2

# ls -al /usr/local/nagios/var/rw
