Closed PauFCB closed 9 months ago

HI, after go to the first run commands, it says: The absolute path to your media directory. If this is skipped (left blank) now, you can set it later via the web interface. but even if I leave blank or put a path show me a error: ERROR The path does not exist or not readable. Try again?
What can I do?

I had the same on my Synology NAS. It seems Koel does not have permissions to read my /volume1/music folder. If I put the Music folder in ../docker/koel/music, it works. Thus must be permissions issue.

I found one way to make it work is give the music folder permissions: everyone read But that is a bit iffy. What i'd like is a way to give a user permissions, like it's done with jellyfin. Much more secure that way.
