Cannot use network share for DL location on Deluge server

Post by Invisabl3flam3s »

I recently setup a Deluge server on Windows 10. Everything seems to work fine until I change my download location to a network share. Any location on the local machine downloads fine. When I change the download location to the network share the download starts then it errors out with a status of "The system cannot find the path specified:"

I have tried to use the FQDN and mapping to a drive local to the PC. Neither paths work when the server is running in server mode.

I have tried running the Deluge service and local service and a service account that has access to the network share.

Any ideas on how i can resolve this?

Sounds like possibly a permissions issue. Have you tried manually copying or saving something to the network?

I would agree, sounds like permissions. The files are downloaded as the deluge user unless you specified yourself as user. That user needs read/write access to the network location, otherwise they will not be able to save anything there.
