[lubuntu-users] Configured directory for incoming files does not exist

[Marc Tremblay]

Thank you Aere,

You are correct. My apologies for the mistype on the error message.

I was able to correct the problem by running this in terminal:

gsettings set org.blueman.transfer shared-path '/home/your_user_name/Downloads'

Cheers

Hi Everyone,

I'm running Lubuntu 16.04.06 LTS and I keep getting the same error message on start up.

Configured directory for incoming files does not exist.
Please make sure that directory "/home/lubuntu/downloads" exists or configure it with blueman-services

The directory exists and seems to be functional.

I ran all the updates and did a sudo apt-get dist-upgrade to see if that would fix the problem but nothing has changed.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.





It appears to me, that the folder name isn't "downloads", but rather, "Downloads", and it needs to be in your home folder (same as your user-name), rather than "lubuntu" (unless that's your user name).  Also, that folder must have write-access.

The error message quoted above, is incorrect/misleading.
