Hello,
Having built myself a Ubuntu server on an HP Proliant box, I've had it downloading iPlayer files without a problem using a cron job.
I now want to add an image to the mp3 files and I do that using a script from this machine.
Here's the full error :- Writing ID3 version v2.3 [Errno 13] Permission denied: u'/media/ProLiant/Media_Share/iPlayer_downloads/radio/Im_Sorry_I_Havent_A_Clue_Series_66_-_2._Episode_2.mp3'
My interpretation of that is that it's caused by ID3. So (a) is it?, (b) why? With the final one (c) what can I do about it?

Well, it depends I suppose how the script does what it does. I'd suggest either manually performing the steps of the script one by one, or edit the script and make it output a message after each step. You'll then know which task failed. You can then google the task and its error messages and get a clue what could cause it.
However, it'd chek first that you can actually edit the file you're trying to adjust - just try and "touch" it and see if that works. If you don't have write access that would certainly cause an error.
Good luck Steve

Well, I can move it from the server to my machine and write it back without errors, so I guess that answers the last query.
I'll work my way through the script though and see what errors I get.

Er, it doesn't answer the last query at all! While I can move the file from the server to this machine without error, I can't 'touch' it as I get a permissions issue.
So plainly I've done something wrong here. Where do I start in resolving it though?
In order to avoid confusing myself even more, I deleted the files that were on the server and using get_iplayer on the Ubuntu box, I downloaded a radio program again.
If I tell you what I did when setting up the box that might help.
My fstab file on this machine looks like this :- //ProLiant/xbox /media/ProLiant/Media_Share cifs dir_mode=0775,gid=chris,uid=chris,credentials=/etc/samba/auth.proliant_server.Xbox,sec=ntlm,_netdev 0 0
The credentials file has a userid and password in it like 'xbox' and 'password'.
On the Ubuntu box, I added chris to the xbox group too. So if I run the id command, the result looks like this :- uid=1000(chris) gid=1000(chris) groups=1000(chris),4(adm),24(cdrom),27(sudo),30(dip),46(plugdev),110(lxd),113(sambashare),117(lpadmin),1003(xbox)
So can you give me any pointers on where I might start with this please? Even a link to a relevant web page would help.
Ta.
