[Bug 959616] Re: Permission denied errors when writing on any target drive
I know this is an old thread, but this bug was also affecting me on Ubuntu 15.10. Removing ~/.config/transmission/ also fixed the problem for me -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959616 Title: Permission denied errors when writing on any target drive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/959616/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 959616] Re: Permission denied errors when writing on any target drive
Inspired by Nick's tip I've renamed ~/.config/transmission/settings.json and ~/.config/transmission/dht.dat but kept resume and torrents folders intact. The error is gone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959616 Title: Permission denied errors when writing on any target drive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/959616/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Anyone know a workaround?

[Bug 959616] Re: Permission denied errors when writing on any target drive
I did a fresh install of 12.04, but kept my home directory intact. After quitting transmission, completely removing my transmission settings folder and starting transmission again, I no longer get this error. rm -rf ~/.config/transmission/ I should have moved it aside, rather than remove it, so I could see what setting was causing the error. I'm guessing something to due with the download location even though I was saving everything to my home directory and still getting this error. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959616 Title: Permission denied errors when writing on any target drive To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/transmission/+bug/959616/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
