Request failed connecting to cifs on Mybooklive

First of all, this post is close or is my issue: Ubuntu Server Permissions
The error in the log is

However I set the line in fstab to

and did a mount -a and tried again. Same error.

I then tried

and did a mount -a and tried again. Same error. Restarted Sonarr, same error.

I am not sure how to proceed. The share is set up as Public in the WD Live web portal. I’ve been using it extensively under Windows for a long time. This is the first time I’m trying to move my Sonarr/ Sabnzbd to Linux under Raspbian

Can you write files to it from the rpi outside of Sonarr?

Yes I can and I am logged on as “pi”

pi@raspberrypi ~/Videos/TV/Homeland $ sudo nano test.txt pi@raspberrypi ~/Videos/TV/Homeland $ ls test.txt pi@raspberrypi ~/Videos/TV/Homeland $

Missed it on the first look, but your root folder is set wrong, it shouldn’t be /home/pi/Videos/TV/Homeland/ it should be /home/pi/Videos/TV/.

Beyond that I’m not sure what else it could be, looks like its mounted correctly.

Ok thanks for the tip. I guess I’ll try NFS but that was giving me grief too
