hello

I’ve done the following commands

First in the /opt/etc/mt-daapd/mt-daapd.conf, I’ve checked that my share folder was /share/hdd/data/public/mp3
then


# chmod o+r -R /share/hdd/data/public/mp3
# /opt/etc/init.d/S60mt-daapd
# tail -f /var/log/messages

I don’t understand why the permission is denied : in the mp3 folder there is only one mp3 file that have the readable properties ( i’ve checked it)

addtional info : I’ve done everything logged as root (SSH mode)

thanks for your help

Check the directory it lives in, too. It has to be at least r-x for world to be able to work.

I use rwxr-xr-x for directories and rw-r–r– for files. That’s pretty much the minimum you can have to have it work. Remember, it drops privs and runs as “nobody”, not as root.
