Can't use symbolink link in category

OS: Linux on QNAP TS 409 Pro
Install-type: NAS package

Hello,

I want to use the categories to store the downloads in different folders. I have symbolic links in the complete folder like this:

Code: Select all

[/share/Qdownload/sabnzbd/complete] # ls -l
lrwxrwxrwx    1 admin    administ       19 Nov 27 19:53 Films -> /share/Public/Films/
lrwxrwxrwx    1 admin    administ       20 Nov 27 19:53 Muziek -> /share/Public/Muziek/
lrwxrwxrwx    1 admin    administ       19 Nov 27 19:53 Temp -> /share/Public/Temp//
lrwxrwxrwx    1 admin    administ       22 Nov 27 19:53 tmp -> /share/Qmultimedia/tmp/
The category looks like this:
Category: tmp
Mode: Default
Folder/Path: tmp
Groups: >

When downloading a nzb assigned to this category i get the following warning:

ERROR [sabnzbd.misc] Failed making (/share/Qdownload/sabnzbd/complete/tmp)

The download stays in /share/Qdownload/sabnzbd/complete.

Is there something wrong with the link or permissions?

I also tried to use the full path like /share/Qmultimedia/tmp. But then the files end up in /mnt/HDA_ROOT/rootfs_2_3_6/share/Qmultimedia/tmp

So this wouldn't work either.

Kind regards,

Mbergnl
