File Access Denied

[Spyderturbo007]

I'm was moving some stuff around using disk shares because one of my disks was full from me swapping out SD files for HD.  Anyway, I got to one folder and ended up getting this message:

 

"You require permission from Unix User\daemon to make changes to this file".  I checked the permissions through Windows Explorer and it has the same permissions as my other files that I'm able to move.  I really don't care about the file and can download it again, but I can't even delete the file. 

 

I get an Access Denied message if I try and edit the permissions.

 

Thanks!

First, what version of Windows? 

 

Second, Try running Windows Explorer as 'Administrator'.  (Right click on Windows Explorer and select 'Run as Administrator')

 

Third, how are you logged into the  server?  You might want to read this:

BE sure to read not only this post but the ones that follow it.  This might not be your issue but it is good reading in any case.

 

Your other option would be to install the Krusader Docker and do these types of moves using it.   Since you would be using it as 'root', all of the permission problems should be gone.

Could also be the ownership in Linux got messed up as well. Might be worth checking from a terminal session.

Run as administrator didn't work and I'm afraid that the linked topic is above my pay grade. 

 

Are there any other options?  Maybe deleting it from the tower web interface?

Tools -> New Permissions, or if you have Dockers, Tools -> Docker Safe New Perms.

I'm bringing this back up because I'm still having problems.  I ignored the other file and moved on, but I tried to delete something today and am getting a "You require permission from Unix User\dameon to make changes to this file."

 

Is it possible this is an issue with SAB, Emby or Sonarr?  This is one of my TV shows.

 

I looked  for Docker Safe New Permissions under tools, but don't see anything.  There is a New Permissions under the unRAID OS section of Tools, but nothing about Docker Safe.

Probably Sonarr when it move the file to your TV share.  In Sonarr's setting, you can set the file and folder chmod mask (advanced view in media management)  Set them to 0777

I changed them ad turned on the "Set permissions", which was off.  Thank you.  Any thoughts on how to fix the ones that I can't edit?  I looked under the tools tab for "Docker Safe New Perms", but don't see that option.  There is a "New Permissions" under the unRAID OS section in Tools.  Is that the same thing?

Mostly.  The difference is that the docker safe version will never let you run it against the appdata share.  If you use the "regular" version, select the appropriate share to run it on.
