    I am trying to add some new files to the BBS, some that I think would be of more interest to visitors.

    In the File Base manager portion of Mystic settings, I have the physical path (raspberry pi) set as:/home/server/software/windows os apps/01 -
    new games/

    I think that the pathing is wrong since when I attempt to upload files, nothing happens. Can anyone lend a hand? =)

    Thanks in advance!

    So just checking, does that path you mention above have all of those spaces
    in them such as 'windows os apps' ??

    If so I would suggest you substitute spaces for underscores.

    I guess first thing to check is that your file path has been created
    accurately at the ls level :)

    Unfortunately,yes. =)

    I could do that, was hoping though that I didn't have to change the structure since it's a network that is accessed by other users who have it mapped already.

    I've done that, I can navigate to the folder once the NAS has been mounted
    and in using "pc games" ... just wasn't sure if Mystic would accept quote in the path setup or not.

    Thanks Avon! =)

    I think that the path does work, because I tried uploading to that file base area and it tells me that it can't because it's a CD-ROM?

    What did I do wrong?

    Belay that ... slap me now, please. =)

    File base group had 'fi' in the permissions.

    Going back to lurking again, hehehe

    I don't think it does, but I'm not 100% sure
