Steam Issues - Cannot create steam library in Unraid share


Recommended Posts

Hey all,

 

I had created a gaming VM last week, and mapped a network share from my Unraid server, to store my steam library in. 

 

I'm not sure what has happened in between, however, steam seems to have disconnected from the library. When I try to add a new, or the existing library, steam throws up an error "new steam library folder must be writeable". 

 

I have tried playing with folder permissions, running steam as admin and many other suggestions on the web, all to no avail. 

 

I can write files to the share through OSX or Windows without any issues. 

 

Any ideas as to why steam is throwing up this error?
