permissions, rm -rf and/or rmdir.....advice

Post by samsun076 »

Hello Everyone
I am trying to get a basic post processing script written. I have it completed, but get a permission denied on deleting a directory.
Quick background...I am running sab version 0.7.9 on a Synology DS1512+.

I replicated the steps manually by ssh'ing into the box and and switching to the sabnzbd users. I get the same error on this last step. Obvious permissions issue. Heres is the problem though. I have SAB create folders with 777 permissions. When I do ls -la the permissions are 777. The folder is totally empy. When a I manually create a folder, I can remove it without any issue.
Below are the errors I get:
If you look at the permissions they look to be correct. Does SAB have a folder or file lock that it adds. Am I being a total idiot and the issue is right under my nose....Please help:-)

Code: Select all

MacDaddyNAS> su sabnzbd
