Title: Unable to create a folder access denied
Post by: grvdgrtoo on January 28, 2008, 03:04:02 AM

For some reason I am unable to add any data to my server...I am getting an error message:

'unable to create a folder access denied'

I hope this isn't a stupid question but am I simply out of room on my server?  I have 2 80G drives [raid 1] and when I go to see how much data is on them, it is showing (in the backup or restore area) that I have 59G of data.
 
  After posting this I found that I could add data in a shared data ibay...I was trying to add the above data to an ibay that only the admin [me] can add data to, with read capabilities for everyone else.

Log in as root and issue the following command:

Code: [Select]

df

No - "access denied" is a permissions issue. It would say something different if you were out of room.

As you mention you are logged in as user "admin" I can tell you there are a similar bug reports that are currently unconfirmed/open.
