[SOLVED] Permission problems with 8.xx

[Phosphoric]

Code:

pi@moode:/ $ ls -l /media
total 128
drwxr-xr-x 150 root root 131072 Oct  5 17:58 'Moode playe'

What is output from the following commands on the 192.168.x.x system?

Code:

ls -l /media

systemctl status smbd

Code:

pi@moode:/ $ systemctl status smbd

Btw, Code Box icon is on the toolbar on the right side. You have to be in Compose or Preview Post mode.

Hope I got that right!

Looks good.

Now from your Linux Mint box try the commands below.

Code:

sudo mkdir /mnt/Test

sudo mount -t cifs "//192.168.x.x/Moode player" -o username="Guest",password="",rsize=61440,wsize=65536,iocharset=utf8,vers=3.1.1,rw,noserverino,dir_mode=0777,file_mode=0777 "/mnt/Test"

If no errors then try to write to the mount point

sudo touch /mnt/Test/test.txt

If no errors then reverse the above

sudo rm /mnt/Test/test.txt
sudo umount -f /mnt/Test
sudo rmdir /mnt/Test

Thanks Tim,

test.txt appeared in my Moode playe media file.  Is that good?
I'm currently downloading a fresh version of 8.20 to try from scratch again. I won't overwrite the version that we are working on at the moment though.
