Permissions problem USB Backup Plugin

  • Hello everyone,


    I'm having some problems when simulating a "crash" and trying to restore from the External USB drive that I have set up to backup with USB Backup Plugin.
    I'm trying to mount it on an Ubuntu 16.04.1 Virtual Machine to try to recover the files in an event of a crash of the OMV system but I'm unable to access the drive. Ubuntu says that I don't have permissions to display the files in it.
    How can I recover the files in there if my OMV box is dead or simply I want to grab a file from the backup drive from another Linux distro?


    Drive is formatted as ext4 and plugin works wothout problems: I plug in, it runs and then it unmounts the drive and I disconnect it and store it in a safe place.



    Thanks in advance!


    PS: I add a screenshot of my settings

    The Schrödinger's code is that one which is going to work and it's full of bugs at the same time; until you test it, you won't be able to determine it.

  • Yes. Since I'm not a Linux guru (yet), I open the file mànager and double-click "Extern" (label of the HDD) and then it complains about permissions.


    So you telling me that I should mount via CLI as root? I'll try tomorrow; 23:55h here and I'm going to bed.


    Thanks for the hint!

  • No luck @subzero79.


    Mounted but inaccessible because of permissions.


    I ran:


    Bash
    $ sudo mount -t ext4 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/extern

    But same output when I try to open it: I don't have permissions to display the files.
