  Permission alerts

  Posted by Bruce Gaber on March 13, 2018 at 1:43 pm

  Lately each time I open a project or try to save it for the first time in a session I get three warnings that DR can’t find the path and/or permissions are not set to read/write. The permissions are, in fact, correct as are the paths. I am able to open projects without the media being offline and to save normally after canceling the permissions alert. So I think things are working properly (tho as we can’t view the actual project files location it still leaves me a feeling a little insecure).

  Any idea of what is going on and how to fix it? It’s not a deal-breaker, but it is pretty annoying (and a bit worrisome)

  Thanks

  I would try deleting all the Media Storage paths from Preferences, then re-select the drives and make sure they’re listed in the window in the correct order, with the top-most drive for Gallery stills and Cache files. I would also make sure you repair permissions on this drive within the OS and make sure it’s got sufficient space to do what you need to do.

  I run into this sometimes when I have to move a project from my system to a client’s system at another facility, but I get around that by bringing along the Cache drive. As long as that path is visible, it can work pretty seamlessly.
