May 10, 201214 yr hello helpful community! i'm trying to delete a few files from my unraid server. trying to do this from my windows pc by accessing various shares. i am unable to delete anything as i keep getting error from the subject line any advice?
May 10, 201214 yr are you running 4.7 or 5.x? disk or user shares? are your shares read/write or read only?
May 10, 201214 yr Author hi there! i'm running 5.12b using user shares i'm pretty sure they are read and write... but actually not sure how to check! i can usually delete files no prob, but i seem to be having trouble with files that programs write to the shares... for example i want to delete some files created by yamj but am unable to
May 10, 201214 yr I am having the same problems also and New permissions has not worked for me. I wish you luck
May 10, 201214 yr I'm having this problem also. Everytime I run the command "yamj-rescan", I have to follow it with "chown -R admin:user /mnt/user/NAME_OF_SHARE/Jukebox" before I can delete or overwrite the movie poster with some other picture I like better. Replace NAME_OF_SHARE with the name of your share folder. Maybe that will help you.
May 10, 201214 yr I had a similar problem - media I would transfer to unRAID was invisible to my Dune, and I constantly had to run Change Permissions. I realized it was because I was mapping to the share as "root" on my PC, and therefore only root owned the files. I changed the map to "nobody", with no password, and that seems to have worked. Carl.
