Yes, just tried that, same behaviour. As I said earlier, it looks like the files are being created *before* the process drops to the 'squeezeboxserver' user, so have root:root ownership and only root can write. If I change the permissions on the files to 666, then I can start the server up (and it appears to stay running) but later get the following: Code: -------------------- [20-03-25 12:33:17.0006] Slim::Utils::Prefs::Namespace::savenow (337) Error: can't save /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/plugin/fulltext.prefs: Permission denied at /usr/share/perl5/Slim/Utils/Prefs/Namespace.pm line 326. -------------------- This seems to be a similar issue, the 'prefs/plugin' directory seems be owned by root with restrictive permissions: Code: -------------------- root@68af7df47f3e:/var/log/squeezeboxserver# ls -alR /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs: total 32 drwxr-xr-x 1 squeezeboxserver nogroup 4096 Mar 25 12:33 . drwxr-xr-x 1 squeezeboxserver nogroup 4096 Mar 25 11:35 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 squeezeboxserver nogroup 162 Mar 25 12:31 favorites.opml -rw-r--r-- 1 squeezeboxserver nogroup 5474 Mar 25 12:31 log.conf drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 25 12:31 plugin -rw-r--r-- 1 squeezeboxserver nogroup 6164 Mar 25 12:33 server.prefs /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/prefs/plugin: total 8 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Mar 25 12:31 . drwxr-xr-x 1 squeezeboxserver nogroup 4096 Mar 25 12:33 .. -------------------- Thanks Andy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ adhawkins's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=650 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111828 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
