For some unknown reason I have a file under my media section that has the permissions set for root/root when all the others are set to nobody/user. How can I change to match the others? Can I do it from the GUI interface or do I have to do it from the command line (beginner there). Any help would be great appreciated.

From the GUI, ideally you should the fix common problems plugin and then from the tools menu run the docker safe new permissions tool

 

From the command line,

chown nobody:users /path/to/file/filename

But, its really not a big deal so long as the permissions on the file itself are ok.  What is the output of

ls -al /path/to/file

 

Thanks Squid you are the man!!!
