RN104 recent Update to 6.5.0 Deluge Download Folder Permission Problems
Hi All, Sorry to trouble you. But I am having some real problems with an App downloaded and installed from ReadyNas Xtras. The App, Deluge 1.3.12 has been fine after installing on my Netgeat RN1...

OK my friend this is what I just find out , I don't know if somebody else wants to try it and let us know but this is my results. I have 2 NAS a 104 and a 314, I decided to backup my 104 to my pc and did a factory default reset And believe it or not after that everything is back to normal on the 104, the 314 still have the same problem. On the 104 I clean the disks and start all over again. If you want to try this do it on your own risk, for me it worked. Now I am going to back up the 314 to the 104 and try the same thing on it. Good luck and let us know your results.

There is small problem, with backing up 2TB of data...

Is your problem also related to the Deluge Download Folder? Or is it something else?

If the data is important to you, you should back it up. RAID is (in my experience) not enough to keep your data safe.
Though it is inconvenient/time consuming to restore all the data.

I was actually asking Shtoffen. It wasn't clear to me if his problem was the same as yours, or not.

jaybepr - I am sorry I had no answers for you, I am glad you have managed to sort out one of the devices. I had a lot of work to catch up with and also one of my Sons (youngest) Birthday was this weekend so I literally do not know where the last two days have gone!
But in conclusion to this whole debacle I am a little bemused, having paid money (albeit not a lot but still money nonetheless) to purchase 'Deluge' for my ReadyNas and yet I still have no answer from Netgear or the dev. who encoded the application, so not paticulary happy as you can imagine. Hopefully, as tomorrow is the start of another day (Monday) I may yet get an answer than, if not I am afraid I will have to take steps to request my money back, as having an app that literally does not work is just foolhardy and although I have a lot of apps (from Netgear and other devs.) that are reporting 'errors' and not working, I did not purchase them as they were free!

No problem, I am working overtime right now so I'm not going to be able to mess with it until Tuesday. That I find out yesterday is just like a workaround is not meant to be like that, I only did it on the small RN104 (4TB) to test it and it worked ( not like it is supposed to ) but I'm not doing it on the 314 (16TB) is too much data to mess around with. I have a case number since the first day of the fairmware came out and still no communication, they spend like four hours trying to find the problem but they were concentrating on my computer settings not understanding that it was a Firmware problem. But let them play to game, if this doesn't get fixed I am changing my business someplace else, I know it's only me saying this but I know there's a lot more people thinking it. I have been using Netgear NAS since they started with Infrant and never had a problem like this. But let's see what they do about it, if not I will be posting some things on Craigslist pretty soon :-)
