[[Solved] Chmod 777 Music Folder Btsync Still Unable To Write To Folder]

I am too thick, nothing like getting dirty at command line experimenting. We learn when we have too. Using live distro to pull my music collection from a borked migration. No permission to copy those files? Learn the practical difference between chmod & recursive chown file permissions. By chowning Music folder (BTSync now works) & I was also able to drag all my precious data from an early grave!

 

Learn ppls, learn. Theory often makes no sense, slight diff syntax between Debian based & RPM, but all good.

[[Solved] Chmod 777 Music Folder Btsync Still Unable To Write To Folder]

openSUSE Factory x64 ~ Cannot write to /home/fleamour/Music despite chmoding folder with 777 switch. Is this a bug?

[Cannot Launch With/without Gui]

My syntax was out, should be;

sudo btsync start

Thanky muchly!

[Cannot Launch With/without Gui]

I am running Ubuntu 12.04 & have tried to install the unofficial GUI, (no icon launchers show up upon install) & now I find, even after purging all packages I can no longer launch plain BTSync?!?

$ sudo start btsync

now returns;

start: Unknown job: btsync

I hope this makes sense?
