Permission denied Error

Post by hadware »

Hello,

I'm sorry if this is a duplicate, but i've scourged google for like 2 days and reinstalled/reconfigured transmission twice before coming here...
What i'm running on:
Debian Squeeze, headless server with transmission-daemon. The problem appeared after the dist-upgrade from lenny to squeeze
The problem
When I add and laucnh a torrent via the web interface/remote RPC, I get the error "Unable to save resume file: Permission denied".
Where does transmission-daemon-controlled client saves the resume file? I tried to chgrp /var/lib/transmission-daemon/info/resume but it didn't do anything. I chmod to 777 the download folder, but that wasn't oobviously the problem. Please do help ;)

Okay apparently i fixed it: the /info folder, in the /var/lib/transmission-daemon folder was set to 730 rights... wonder why. I changed it to 775 and now it appears to run well.
