Just here to state that I am also getting this error whilst using the
nix shepherd service. (I'm on an up-to-date guix system).

You can have a look at
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=63893
which solves the problem.

Thank you Zihao, I did notice the patch at the time but I didn't assume
that it had fixed the issue.
I will stay patient for when it will be pushed upstream. Thank you for
your efforts.
Regards,
Haider Mirza

I'm still receiving the same error. I tested a variant of Zhu's patch by defining my own custom Nix package that sticks very closely to Zhu's, just with manpages and docs generation disabled. I can confirm Nix is running latest: nix (Nix) 2.16.0.
This is the first time I've done any kind of Guix hacking so it's a bit rough. Here's my custom Nix package.
(define-public my-nix
(package
(inherit nix)
(name "nix")
(version "2.16.0")
(inputs (modify-inputs (package-inputs nix)
(append rapidcheck nlohmann-json)))
(source
(origin
(method git-fetch)
(uri (git-reference
(url "https://github.com/NixOS/nix")
(commit version)))
(file-name (git-file-name name version))
(sha256
(base32 "0jizpci4zspqpqqy3n780m4wh8dzhfywaiz953xv70c7in810dra"))))
(arguments
`(#:configure-flags '("--disable-doc-gen")
#:phases
(modify-phases %standard-phases
(replace 'check
(lambda args
;; Some tests expect environment variable NIX_STORE to be
;; "/nix/store"
(let ((original-NIX_STORE (getenv "NIX_STORE")))
(dynamic-wind
(lambda ()
(setenv "NIX_STORE" "/nix/store"))
(lambda ()
(apply (assoc-ref %standard-phases 'check) args))

Perhaps this is a permissions issue with the nix shepherd service? I
haven't tried the patch linked above, but found that I could run
$ sudo nix-channel --update
without running into the issue. Then, I got the same error again when
trying to install any package with nix-env. Once again, I could run
$ sudo nix-env -i <some-package>
which would successfully install it to the root profile. After doing
this, however, I found that I now could run
$ nix-env -i <some-package>
to install the package to my user profile, presumably because the nix
store was populated by the run with sudo.

For What Its Worth (fwiw): I found that restarting the nix-daemon shepherd service makes this issue go away for me.
Not sure what is the underlying cause, but thought I'd mention it for others.
Kind regards,

Wow, thank you for the tempoary workaround.
It's quite obscure that it works though.
