At some point in the guide, it gives the instruction to input “sudo chown -R user:gorup *”. “gorup”, I’m assuming is their own username. Anyways, I attempted to add my username@localhost, the username alone, and the Name I chose found in the Users menu.
I’m sure I’m missing something pretty simple here, but I don’t know what it is. Anyone have an idea?
For reference, I was following this guide (Jellyfin server on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed)
I’ll note that “gorup” is almost certainly a spelling error – a typographic error - intended to be “group”. You can use the
groups
command to find out which groups you are in.
@ihavenoideawhatimdoing in tumbleweed now group used to be users, but now it would be username:username
Like literally “username:username” would be what I would input on that line?
Yes, that would probably be appropriate with Tumbleweed. Except you should replace “username” with the login name that you use on your system.
Oops, I meant to add that all of the usernames I tried failed to register.
You better check what commands are supposed to do before executing them:
man chown
for “chown” i almost always use my login name
su -
— password –
cd /to/the/location/
chown john:users FileOrFolderName
@johnvv on new installs or maybe new files it would be john:john now…
