Had the same problem ... spent the better part of a day trying to work through it. For me, the error message set me up for failure by leading me down the wrong path looking for a solution. The real underlying problem was directory permissions two directories above in the path.

Be sure the entire path has at least golbal 'read' permissions set!

The problem was that the perant directory /media/RAID-storage had it's "others" folder access set to "none"

I am up and running now, THANK GOD that's over.

I am so excited right now, Thanks for all the help mgmiller

Hooray! The solution actually makes sense.

This is a valuable lesson, the whole path has to have the correct permissions, not just the target folder.

Glad it's finally working.....
