ReadyNas 104 Trasmission permission denied

Good evening everyone,

 

I have a problem with the Transmission App on my ReadyNas 104.
I had already installed this app a long time ago and it always worked. I recently had to change the hard drives to put new bigger ones and I had to install the app again.
Once installed, I open the Web interface, add a download, it starts downloading without problems but after a few seconds it stops giving the problem "Error: Permission Denied (file path...)".

 

Anyone know what it could be?

Thank you

    Try using the reset control on the file access page.

      I have already tried several times but without any changes
      I also tried putting admin or guest as the owner of the folder
      I tried deleting and installing the app again
      I tried going into settings.json and changing unmask from 18 to 0

        Ok.  Reset will recursively set permissions of all the files and subfolders to match the settings, so you should always use it after changing them.

         

        You might also look for a "umask" setting in transmission.  If you see that, then try setting it to 0.
