Deluge permissions

Post by WastedJoker »

hi,

I've installed headless Deluge w/ webui on my headless ubuntu server (12.04 precise)

Using webmin, I've created samba share for downloads in media/Main/Downloads and given permission to 2 users - chris & deluge.

Deluge won't download to that folder however - I get Permission Denied.

I used the guide at: http://www.havetheknowhow.com/Install-t ... dless.html

I have used chmod o+w to allow the download to go ahead, which it did successfully, but I am unable to rename or delete the downloaded files/directory because I require the permission of "Unix User/deluge".

I assumed owning perms on media/Main/Downloads would be recursive and subsequently any folders/files created would be fully accessible.

Can anyone suggest a workaround?

Edit: Actually, I just amended the script from that guide to UMASK=000.

Will see if that works.

Edit: Setting umask to 000 worked. I could rename/delete files. Had to restart the daemon first though.

Hello I have this exact same issue. May I ask where did you change the umask and how to resolve this issue ? (My problem is that anything downloaded by deluge cannot be modified by any of my other users

I allso have the same issue, and I used the same guide, deluge cant download nothing, always says Status:
Permission denied:

How can I fix this, I edited UMASK=000 in daemon startup, but dident work.

-- EDIT --

I gave a folder 777 premision, solved my problem

sudo chmod -R 777
