I have a raspberry pi 3 B+ running raspbian.

I installed transmission torrent client, and I connected an usb disk to save files there.

For some reason, I'm not able to write in to the disk.

Until now, I tried:

  1. Change user group of transmission daemon as explain on this guide. https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/a/29538

  2. Partition and format the disk as ext4, adding chmod 777 -R .. I tested runining: sudo -u debian-transmission touch file.txt works perfectly.

  3. I added fstab entry like UUID=c8299c71-1baf-4760-bd91-07a6cd428a7c /media/pi/c8299c71-1baf-4760-bd91-07a6cd428a7c ext4 defaults 0

  4. I turn on the logs of transmission to see whats going on: https://pastebin.com/FqFGpaEa

I have solved my right problems with this : 

sudo mount.cifs //XXX/XXX/XXXXXXX /home/pi/usbRemoteDrive/routerDrive -o uid=debian-transmission,gid=debian-transmission,ip=192.168.X.XXX,user=,pass=,vers=1.0

The answer was : uid=debian-transmission,gid=debian-transmission

I also added pi user in debian-transmission group : 

sudo usermod -a -G debian-transmission pi

I added a cron on boot who mount the disk cause i was not abble to do this with fstab...

@boot /home/pi/Scripts/boot.sh

boot.sh : 

#! /bin/sh
sudo mount.cifs //XXX/XXX/XXXXXXX /home/pi/usbRemoteDrive/routerDrive -o uid=debian-transmission,gid=debian-transmission,ip=192.168.X.XXX,user=,pass=,vers=1.0
exit 0

I don't know if it's a good solution but it is working
