pb to find incoming files under 'root'
« on: November 13, 2004, 01:54:03 PM »

Hi,
New user of amule on mdk 10.0, amule seems to be instaled under 'root' directories. So incoming files are in 'root/.aMule/Incoming/'.
I can't open it because of permission, I tried to make a link to my files but it doen't seem to work at all.
When i do 'ls -i /root/.aMule/Incoming/', my downloaded files are here !
Please help, what can I do ?
Thanx, Greg

why don't you move all the files to your /home/nick/.aMule/Temp and Incoming, chown the files nick.users, run amule (as user) and set the new incoming and temp dir in preferences?

cheers

I allready tried to redirect incoming files in another box under 'home' but the files don't appear here (even if i make appear the hollow files).
Should i reinstall amule under 'home' better than 'root'.

Thanx for your answer

as root:

cd /root/.aMule/Incoming

cp *.* /home/youruser/.aMule/Incoming

cd ..

cd Temp

cp *.* /home/youruser/.aMule/Temp

cd  /home/youruser/.aMule/Temp

chown youruser.users *

cd ..

cd Incoming

chown youruser.users *

exit

run amule as user + change your amule preferences for incoming and temp dir, save it and restart amule

cheers
