I’m running:
- TrueNAS v25.04.2.1
- Frigate v0.15.2_1.2.9
I used to be able to use the Export feature within Frigate, but now cannot. When I try to export a video, the app says it was successful, but no video is exported and I see this error in the log:
PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: ‘/media/frigate/clips/export/[REDACTED].webp’
I restarted the app, but the issue remains.
This makes no sense:
- I was just using the Export feature a few weeks ago and haven’t changed anything since then, other than upgrading from Electric Eel to Fangtooth
- Frigate clearly has write access because when I click the Export button, it does save the WEBP image it’s complaining about, but never makes the video I requested
- Frigate is writing recordings, clips, config changes, etc. just fine in the same dataset, so I’m perplexed
This seems to be related this issue, in which Frigate would throw a similar error when trying to copy the config file on startup, claiming it didn’t have permission, even though it was clearly demonstrating the ability to write to the directory it was complaining about.
Anyone experience this or have any ideas? This is getting exhausting.
