You have to add the flag --even-if-lfroen-complains-this-will-stay to start aMule.

e.g. type the following in a terminal:

Code: [Select]

amule --even-if-lfroen-complains-this-will-stay

Ok,but if i'm not logged as root i have this message
Permissions on the aMule configuration directory too strict!
aMule cannot proceed. To fix this, you must set read/write/exec
permissions for the folder '/home/matteo/.aMule/'
What i do?
Thanks a lot!

Hi teeodor:

Please read about the file system permissions for Unix first: (e.g. in the wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_system_permissions#Traditional_Unix_permissions))

Then execute the following.

Code: [Select]

sudo chown matteo ~/.aMule
sudo chgrp users ~/.aMule
sudo chmod 755 ~/.aMule

Then please give me the output of the following commands:

Code: [Select]

whoami
id -ng
ls -la ~ | grep aMuleThe first will output your user name, the second your primary group and the third the current permissions of the folder.

matteo@Cantina:~$ whoami
matteo
matteo@Cantina:~$ id -ng
matteo
matteo@Cantina:~$ ls -la ~ | grep aMule
drwxr-xr-x  4 matteo users     4096 2007-05-10 20:32 .aMule

OK, please execute the following:

Code: [Select]

sudo chown -R matteo ~/.aMule
sudo chgrp -R matteo ~/.aMule
This will change the ownership of all files inside the folder as well (-R is recursive), which I think is the problem.

AFAIK, categories do not let you download to a different folder, they will use the same temp folder as specified by aMule. However, you could tell aMule to execute some script on finish of the download you want, that would move it to the server you want.

Regards.

Look for the "Events" part of the preferences in amule. It's only on recent CVS versions, so if you are using amule 2.1.3 I think you will not have these options.
