Error changing Temporal files directory

Mon Mar 26, 2007 1:41 pm

Hi, i mounted a new partition /media/Downloads and i want ktorrent to download files and keep temps in this partition.

So i changed in ktorrent's preferences to keep temps in /media/Downloads/Ktorrent/temp and downloads in /media/Downloads/Ktorrent

But now, when i add a torrent i get this error:

"No se puede crear el enlace simbÃ³lico de /media/Downloads/Ktorrent/temp/tor0/cache a /media/Downloads/Ktorrent/Waking.Life.LiMITED.DVDivX-QiX.avi: OperaciÃƒÂ³n no permitida"

Can't create simbolic link, operation forbidden, i've set the permissions to the partition so that anyone can rwx and its working fine. But ktorrent doesn't work.

What can i do to fix this?
