### My YunoHost server
**Hardware:** Kimsufi KS4
**YunoHost version:** 4.2.4
**I have access to my server :** Through SSH | through the webadmin
### Description of my issue
Hello,
_(Sorry for the double post on the Navidrome topic)_
I am using Navidrome with a music folder created with Syncthing.
It was working great since last update [0.42.1](https://github.com/navidrome/navidrome/releases/tag/v0.42.1) (35027bbe).
Now, Navidrome can’t access my music folder anymore.
Here is the error:
```auto
INFO[0000] Configuring Media Folder
name="Music Library" path=/home/yunohost.app/syncthing/Musique
INFO[0000] Creating Image cache
maxSize="100 MB" path=/var/lib/navidrome/cache/images

ERRO[0000] Errors while scanning media. Please check the logs
INFO[0000] Finished full rescan
```
I’ve tried to change the permission of this folder:
```auto
sudo chmod -R o+r Musique
drwxr-xr-- 345 syncthing syncthing 12288 Apr 28 18:31 Musique
```
But no success.
Any help welcome, thanks!

Hi
Do have test to give execution right to nobody group ?
```auto
sudo chmod -R 755 /home/yunohost.app/syncthing/Musique
```
And restart navidrome
?

And the rights are OK on the parent directories ?
```auto
ls -l /home/yunohost.app
```
```auto
ls -l /home/yunohost.app/syncthing
```
?

Try `o+rx` instead

Thanks both of you, I had to change the rights ( `o+rx`) to the /syncthing folder, changing only /Musique did not work.
`chmod -R o+rx /home/yunohost.app/syncthing`

Perhaps a issue with the acl rights ?
