Permission problem with a script
by Davno from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5CQZB)
Hi,
On a new Linux install "Mint 20.1", a old python music converter script that always worked, and also the software "Flacon" (which does about the same work), both act the same. The don't run onto a file unless it is in my /home directory.
With the python script "gcue2track.py" the script hangs at the end of the last files of the album unless that file is in the /home directory.
And "Flacon" does not let me import any files that is not in the /home directory.
I don't see any problem with mount or permission with any other software or script.
All my music is on a different hd.
On the screenshot, you can see on the left, my / directory and on the right "Flacon" does not give me the option of /media or /mnt.
Im puzzled.
Thank You for your help.
