copying to USB stick fails on raspbian stretch, permission denied #23

Closed OliverGruenberg closed 5 years ago

OliverGruenberg commented 5 years ago

Hi there, on a new installation of Raspbian usbmount does not work. Also installed the newest version of usbmount via

sudo apt-get install debhelper git clone https://github.com/rbrito/usbmount.git cd usbmount sudo dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b cd .. sudo apt install ./usbmount_0.0.24_all.deb sudo reboot

Got a "cp: cannot create regular file '/media/usb/test.txt': Permission denied".

I edited /lib/systemd/system/systemd-udevd.service and changed MountFlags=shared, no success after reboot.

Any help?

Without more information, the most likely cause for your permission denied error is that your device is mounted read-only to the user you are logged in as. Have you tried with sudo?

Have a look at the /etc/usbmount/usbmount.conf file. You can set your mount options there with the MOUNTOPTIONS variable.

I've compared with an older installation (which worked)...

Problem found: On the new system FS_MOUNTOPTIONS was not set, changed it to

FS_MOUNTOPTIONS="-fstype=vfat,gid=users,dmask=0007,fmask=0117"

and it works perfectly now!
