USB Folder Uploads

Ok, I've searched the forum and can't find an answer.

I am using Ubuntu 16.04 and I am unable to figure out how to upload gcode from a thumb drive. The path to the thumb drive is supposed to be /media/<username>/<Thumbdrive Label>

When I try to use that path, I can get to /media/<username> but it will not go any farther. I am able to use terminal to see the rest of the path, just not in Server.

Any help would be appreciated

    The problem is that you mount the usb drive while server has a different id and no read permission to read the usb drive. At least this is what I guess. If it is mounted also group readable you could try adding repetierserver user to your group.

    Thanks... I used the following to make the media devices available.

    sudo setfacl -R -m user:repetierserver:rwx /media

    Now I repetierserver is able to drill down into the media devices which includes USB.
