This is your directory root. This line means that you won't be able to add folders located above this directory. What directory you're trying to add? 

Thank you, Helen, for your responce! I have managed to fix the problem. All I had to do is restart sync service.   Sorry!

@gabled-bravado-dell The issue is in the config file, /etc/btsync/config.json. All you need to do is to edit it as @iswrong advised in his post. Alternatively, you can just remove the outdated DEB package that you get in PiWD article and install a new one we've published recently.

Hello,

I am having exactly the same problem here. I edited config.json as @iswrong suggested, with path to my USBHDD location. Unfortunately I still get the same "Your config file prevents you from accessing this directory" error.

My config.json looks like this now:

{
  "listening_port" : 0,
  "storage_path" : "/home/pi/data/.syncsystem",
  "pid_file" : "/home/pi/data/.syncsystem/btsync.pid",
  "use_upnp" : true,
  "download_limit" : 0,
  "upload_limit" : 0,
  "delete_folder_from_disk" : true,
  "folder_defaults.delete_to_trash" : true,
  "webui" :
  {
    "listen" : "0.0.0.0:8888",
    "directory_root" : "/media/pi/USBHDD/Resilio Sync"
  },
  "vendor" : "PiDrive",
  "display_new_version": false
}

I am runing this on Raspberry Pi 3 - Rasberian OS - WD My Cloud formated as ext4. 

Any idea? Any help would be really appreciated.

Thank you!
