Paperpack 1 Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 Hello Emby comunity, yesterday I have set up my first emby server emby-server-deb_3.5.2.0_amd64.deb on Linux Mint 18.3 (Mate). The Setup of the system worked fine, I have left all settings as default. I have added user emby to group paper I have added user paper to group emby But when I try to add Libraries I face this issue: Folders: I can add folder paths like this: / /home /home/paper /tmp/folder1/folder2/folderX but I can not add this existing folder /home/paper/images (and not any other folder in /home/paper/) When I try this, I receive "The path could not be found. Please ensure the path is valid and try again." Images: I can display all images in /tmp and in subfolders (3 levels) I can not display any images in /home/paper (although path was accepted and images are there) Here the permission for /tmp: $ ls -l / insgesamt 96 [...] drwxrwxrwt 17 root root 4096 Sep 16 09:48 tmp Here my permissions inside /tmp $ ls -l /tmp insgesamt 2608 -rw-rw-rw- 1 paper paper 692701 Sep 3 20:17 20151114_110026.jpg -rw-rw-rw- 1 paper paper 765548 Sep 3 20:17 20151114_110030.jpg -rw-rw-rw- 1 paper paper 577683 Sep 3 20:17 20151114_110312.jpg -rw-rw-rw- 1 paper paper 592535 Sep 3 20:17 20151114_110317.jpg prwx------ 1 emby emby 0 Sep 16 08:28 clr-debug-pipe-1115-2490-in prwx------ 1 emby emby 0 Sep 16 08:28 clr-debug-pipe-1115-2490-out -rw------- 1 paper paper 0 Sep 16 08:33 config-err-cNPPqI -rw------- 1 paper paper 0 Sep 16 08:29 config-err-dzR5oO drwxrwxr-x 3 paper paper 4096 Sep 16 09:10 folder1 drwxrwxr-x 2 paper paper 4096 Sep 16 08:49 Pepe drwx------ 2 paper paper 4096 Sep 16 08:34 Temp-d3b02c5b-97f4-48cf-8f7d-75c8a747008a [...] here my persmissions for /home/paper/ $ ls -l /home insgesamt 12 drwx------ 38 paper paper 12288 Sep 16 09:28 paper here my permissions inside /home/paper $ ls -l insgesamt 12220 -rwxrwxrwx 1 paper paper 2200099 Jan 16 2015 20140901_132555_Richtone(HDR).jpg -rwxrwxrwx 1 paper paper 3221748 Jan 16 2015 20140902_153249_Richtone(HDR).jpg -rwxrwxrwx 1 paper paper 2430562 Jan 16 2015 20140902_153544_Richtone(HDR).jpg -rw-rw-rw- 1 emby emby 719601 Sep 3 20:17 20151114_110755.jpg -rw-rw-rw- 1 emby emby 633792 Sep 3 20:17 20151114_111726.jpg -rw-rw-rw- 1 emby emby 535105 Sep 3 20:17 20151114_112100.jpg -rw-rw-rw- 1 emby emby 628943 Sep 3 20:17 20151114_112207.jpg -rw-rw-rw- 1 emby emby 578878 Sep 3 20:17 20151114_112809.jpg drwxr-xr-x 21 paper paper 4096 Aug 9 21:33 images drwxr-xr-x 3 paper emby 4096 Sep 15 15:18 emby drwxr-xr-x 2 paper paper 4096 Aug 9 21:41 Videos [...] This is the output about groups: $ cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwd | xargs groups root : root [...] paper : paper adm cdrom sudo dip plugdev lpadmin sambashare emby emby : emby paper I have already restarted the system.

Solution mastrmind11 717 Posted September 16, 2018 Solution Share Posted September 16, 2018 First of all, that configuration is a permissioning disaster. Your problem is that you don't give the paper or emby group access permission to access /home/paper , you only gave user access permission. Add a group to the folder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your problem is that you don't give the paper or emby group access permission to access /home/paper , you only gave user access permission. Add a group to the folder. Thank you, that pointed me to the right direction: this $ ls -l /home insgesamt 12 drwx------ 38 paper paper 12288 Sep 16 09:28 paper has to be changed: $ sudo chmod g+rwx /home/paper/ paper@dev30 / $ ls -l /home/ insgesamt 12 drwxrwx--- 38 paper paper 12288 Sep 16 09:28 paper Inside /home/paper/ access for group already exists. So now, it works :-) Great - thank you very much Paper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
