ebr 14947 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Just because you can delete doesn't mean the server process can. It is also possible that some other process (could be an Explorer window or video player or...) is holding a lock on the file or directory. Try rebooting the machine.

ebr 14947 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Is your server running as a service? The log line definitely indicates this is a system level issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, do not set it up as a service if it wasn't. If it were a service, then there is additional setup required for these permissions. Make sure that file isn't marked read only...

notla49285 46 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Make sure that file isn't marked read only... *ahem* problem has now been resolved (side note though, when deleting media/series on the web app the series list doesn't refresh to remove it from the list - not a major issue for me but may be confusing for users). Out of interest, does Emby have any control over setting read only status of files? I've discovered quite a few files on my server are set as read only, or would this have been pre-existing and Emby just goes with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14947 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Emby does not modify your media files but we will respect their attributes like this read-only flag. Glad you figured it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
