nzbToMedia crashes on config copy

[LethalCorpse]

My nzbget install on Synology (DSM7+) got bricked, so I'm trying to rebuild the setup from scratch. Mostly working, except for PP. It seems to work fine for the first download processed after deleting autoProcessMedia.cfg. The nzbget settings configure nzbToMedia how it should be, and the script runs clean. On the second and subsequent downloads, I get this:

I've checked permissions, including chmodding the whole folder. Any guidance on what I should look at next?

[clinton-hall]

I know you said you chmodded the folder.... but take a look at the permissions on the autoProcessMedia.cfg file and the folder it is in... see who the file owners are and what permissions are currently set.

It might be that you need to chown the file/folder so that the user that runs nzbToMedia (the user that runs SABnzbd or NZBGet?) owns them.

basically what is failing here is either:

1. moving /volume1/@appstore/nzbget/share/nzbget/scripts/nzbToMedia/autoProcessMedia.cfg to /volume1/@appstore/nzbget/share/nzbget/scripts/nzbToMedia/autoProcessMedia.cfg.old
2. saving the new config to /volume1/@appstore/nzbget/share/nzbget/scripts/nzbToMedia/autoProcessMedia.cfg
