Write Permissions Needed on entire Path?
My Motion.conf file had jpegs and swfs saving to in the /tmp/motion folder, and it gets deleted on reboot.
I changed the target_dir to /home/myname/
So I changed the target_dir back to /tmp/motion, and now jpgs and swfs are created fine.
I tried changing the permissions on the motionvids folder to 'Create and delete files' for the 'Others' user, but I didn't change any permissions on the parent folders (Videos, myname, home.)
First, am I setting the correct permissions for the correct user, and if so, do I need to set them for each folder in the whole path?
