Solved Remote share: "Path not found or invalid" -- Raspberry Pi (kodi)
#1
Not sure why, but somehow I'm unable to enter my external hardrive on my Raspberry Pi (kodi). Updated the system and after that I get the following error:

Remote Share: "Path not found or invalid"

At the same time I am able to access the ext hardrive on the Pi from a windows machine using SAMBA.

Attempting to enter through the terminal wields the following error: cd: 1TB: Permission denied.

Inside Kodi the drive shows up fine, I just cant enter it.

Logg:

Let me know what else you guys need information wise to try and get this to work Smile. (it did work fine before...)

Edit: Managed to get into the drive using sudo -I then cd /media/1TB to get there in Terminal....

Still unable to access the drive in Kodi

Is this some sort of permission issue?

Fixed using:


sudo chmod -R 777 /media/1TB

Is this a safe solution? Or did I just make it open to everyone on the network without a passw requirement? Kodi opens the drive without a problem now.
