Fixing "permission denied" error when trying "ipfs add"
When I tried to add a directory from another partition ipfs said "permission denied".
$ ipfs add -r bionicpup64-8.0-with-crypto-tools Error: open bionicpup64-8.0-with-crypto-tools: permission denied USAGE ipfs add... - Add a file or directory to ipfs. ipfs add [--recursive | -r] [--dereference-args] [--stdin-name= ] [--hidden | -H] [--ignore= ]... [--ignore-rules-path= ] [--quiet | -q] [--quieter | -Q] [--silent] [--progress | -p] [--trickle | -t] [--only-hash | -n] [--wrap-with-directory | -w] [--chunker= | -s] [--pin=false] [--raw-leaves] [--nocopy] [--fscache] [--cid-version= ] [--hash= ] [--inline] [--inline-limit= ] [--] ... Adds contents of to ipfs. Use -r to add directories (recursively). For more information about each command, use: 'ipfs add --help'
I fixed this problem with the command:
$ sudo snap connect ipfs:removable-media
For some reason snap "think" that my hard drive partition is a "removable media". The same error message appears when trying to add file/directory from the /tmp partition.
