I talked to apple tech support.
Based on the error message, " 'LuaRunException', reason: 'AgPathUtils.getStandardFilePath: can't create directory"
The apple tech made me go to the "Macintosh HD", then "Library", "Application Support" tab.
There was one application that was using a lot of memory for the application support that was causing problems for adobe.
I deleted that application and the application support files associated with that program.
The Adobe photoshop Lightroom application now works!
