Mailman74 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I have not been able to move files around no my server. If I try through windows explorer I get a permission error saying that I do not have permission to move file. I tried using MC but my files are not showing up. I have always used MC in the past and I would go under user inside MC and see all my shares. But now there are no shares under user. Any help would be great I do not know what happened Quote Link to comment
FreeMan Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Exit MC, and do "ls -la|more" to list the files with their permissions. You may have files that are hidden or don't have read/write permissions for anyone other than the owner, or even no read/write for the owner. I was having issues with that - they would show in Windows (I have it set to show hidden files), but XBMC wouldn't find them. If you can see them with "ls -la", then you need to change the permissions on them with "chmod 666 file". 666 gives read/write permission to the user, group & everybody, so that should cover you. You can replace file with * to do all the files in a directory, if there are a lot with miss-set permissions. Quote Link to comment
dgaschk Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Change to correct permissions with the newperms command, e.g. "newperms fileOrDirectory" Quote Link to comment

dgaschk Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Show the output of "ls -al" Quote Link to comment
Mailman74 Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 Show the output of "ls -al" I attached the output, thank you Quote Link to comment
JonathanM Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Show the output of "ls -al" I attached the output, thank you Umm, try again. "ls -al" != "ls-la" Also, I think you should cd into the /mnt/user folder before issuing the command. Quote Link to comment

dgaschk Posted January 1, 2014 Share Posted January 1, 2014 Show the listing of the files that are giving the problem. It may be easier to cut and paste the text rather than a screenshot. Paste the text in to a code box. Quote Link to comment

Paste the text in to a code box. Sorry but I think all the files are giving me problems. I see nothing under user when I go into MC. I have been using MC flawlessly for about a year to move files.
