Linux Web GUI does not create folders on filesystem


Recommended Posts

Hello,

Apologies if this has been addressed before (I could not find it in search).

I have BTSync running on a Linux server acting as a NAS device. It's working great, except that new BTSync shares cannot be completely created from the web interface.

The "Add Folder" button allows you to specify a secret and path to a folder. However, the folder must already exist on the filesystem (e.g. `mkdir`). BTSync will not create it if it does not exist.

Is there any particular reason for this behavior? It seems that it would be more intuitive (and convenient) if BTSync could create folders (if filesystem permissions allowed) if they did not already exist.

Thanks for creating BTSync, it's a neat tool!
