NFS mount problems on Ubuntu
Posted: Fri Oct 23, 2020 2:05 am
I have just installed QBittorrent on Ubuntu 20.04 and it works fine when I am storing torrents locally. However, I want to use an NFS mount to store my torrent files. So, I have created a mount directory (changed owner ship and access to my user and 777). Then I updated FSTAB to mount the directoy at boot. Once I reboot, my mount can be accessed from the desktop and I can read and write files.
Then I updated QBittorrent with the new directory. Here I noticed the following: When I click Browse, my directory does not show up. I am not sure why that is, but I thought I should mention it.
Anyhow, I just manually enter my directory and add a torrent. Once it starts downloading, it goes into stalled and the error log shows the following: File error alert. Torrent: <FILENAME> error: Read-only file system.
I am puzzled. Why can QBittorrent not write its torrent data to the mount directory?
Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
