Library on a samba share
Hello there

My library is located on my nas and exported via samba. This has been working for years now without a single hick up.
After upgrading to Ubuntu 15.04 this no longer works and i get a "database read only error". It still works under older Ubuntu versions, still works in Windows.
I understand that the FAQ says its not recommended but i was hoping maybe anyone in here has run into a similar problem and may has a solution.

greetings

It seems to be very unpredictable. From reading other peoples' experiences, the only trend I can see is that people usually end up saying "but it used to work".

I usually offer the suggestion that you keep your main library on the HDD and use rsync to mirror it to the NAS.

Look at the FAQ for "my Device is mounted read only'
Bet it is similar
