Filebot update using Snapd not working - can't access /media folder
Posted: 11 Aug 2017, 00:48
I recently updated Filebot from 4.7.5 to 4.7.9 on my Ubuntu 16.04 home server. The previous version was working just fine, actually it was working awesome. I got tired of the pop up window saying there was a new version, so decided to update Filebot. Boy has that turned into a frustrating event.
I couldn't find a .deb package to update because you have to install Filebot using Snapd now. I figured that would be easy enough.
First, I used the following to remove the old version. I didn't receive any errors and all indicated it was removed successfully
Then I used the following to install Filebot using Snapd. I didn't receive any errors and everything seemed to go fine.
I saw the sticky'd post in the forums about accessing folders outside /home folder, so I ran the following: I then checked the connection to make sure it was entered properly. I ran the following command and verified it was good to go.
Here is my Filebot info:
Unfortunately, I still can't access my files which are located in my /media folder. It's quite frustrating to move from a perfectly working system to one that no longer works, just by updating to the newest version.
Do you have any other suggestions, because I'd like to get Filebot working again?
Thanks in advance.
