Can't read nfs shared folders

I’m trying to set up my media server on raspberry pi.
I managed to mount my harddrives in /etc/fstab, and by running chmod 777 -R on that folder, I can also find them inside media server.
But going through the same procedure with my shared folder from synology, I can see the folders when i navigate on the pi, or run the ls command in terminal, but when I navigate to the mounted folder in plex media server, it’s empty.
Any suggestions?

This is how I have mounted it in fstab:
192.168.0.126:/volume1/Tv-Show_40_min_A- /mnt/TV40_A nfs defaults 0 0

Thanks for your help

  1. Make sure to give ‘everyone’ read permission on the NAS
  2. Take a look here for some info I’ve written on NFS / CIFS mounts https://forums.plex.tv/categories/linux-tips

I looked through it, and added a plex user on my synology

And also made sure the folder would accept all ip

Still i can only see the usb hdd in plex

Edit the permission of each share you mount.
Give user plex permission to read the share.

I have done it for the one folder I’m trying to mount, but still nothing

Also, did you remember to make the directory permissions 755 on the Linux side?

@uglymagoo Care to take over?

Wow! All of a sudden it worked. Think i might have run the 755 only on /mnt instead of /mnt/TV40_A.

Cheers!
