Not able to browse to folder to pick media on Linux

Plex Media Server Desktops & Laptops

Server Version#: 3.69.1

I’m trying to get this set up on Linux, was running fine on a Windows machine, but I’m moving PC’s. I have 2 external USB drives mounted in Linux, but when I’m in Plex, I can’t browse to the folders below the mounted location to the folder for “Movies” for example.

What am I doing wrong? The drives are set with a exFAT partition on both, and I can browse them in Linux just fine, just not from within Plex.

You don’t say what Linux you are running on, but some distros will mount external drives into locations that have incorrect permissions and Plex will not be able to access them.
