Can't transfer downloaded files using Windows

[rockinthesixstring]

Hi there. I just installed Transmission and got it up and running with the following settings

{
    "alt-speed-down": 50, 
    "alt-speed-enabled": false, 
    "alt-speed-time-begin": 540, 
    "alt-speed-time-day": 127, 
    "alt-speed-time-enabled": false, 
    "alt-speed-time-end": 1020, 
    "alt-speed-up": 50, 
    "bind-address-ipv4": "0.0.0.0", 
    "bind-address-ipv6": "::", 
    "blocklist-enabled": false, 
    "complete-dir": "\/media\/media\/complete", 
    "dht-enabled": true, 
    "download-dir": "\/media\/media\/Downloads", 
    "encryption": 1, 
    "lazy-bitfield-enabled": true, 
    "message-level": 2, 
    "open-file-limit": 32, 
    "peer-limit-global": 240, 
    "peer-limit-per-torrent": 60,

    "peer-port-random-high": 65535, 
    "peer-port-random-low": 49152, 
    "peer-port-random-on-start": false, 
    "peer-socket-tos": 0, 
    "pex-enabled": true, 
    "port-forwarding-enabled": true, 
    "preallocation": 1, 
    "proxy": "", 
    "proxy-auth-enabled": false, 
    "proxy-auth-password": "", 
    "proxy-auth-username": "", 
    "proxy-enabled": false, 
    "proxy-port": 80, 
    "proxy-type": 0, 
    "ratio-limit": 2.0000, 
    "ratio-limit-enabled": false, 
    "rpc-authentication-required": false, 
    "rpc-bind-address": "0.0.0.0", 
    "rpc-enabled": true, 
    "rpc-password": "{79d1b523b0213fd388679b3449077d924677b541BMrnChQF", 
    "rpc-port": 2344, 
    "rpc-username": "", 
    "rpc-whitelist": "127.0.0.1", 
    "rpc-whitelist-enabled": false, 
    "speed-limit-down": 900, 
    "speed-limit-down-enabled": true, 
    "speed-limit-up": 200, 
    "speed-limit-up-enabled": true, 
    "umask": 0, 
    "upload-slots-per-torrent": 14
}

The problem that I'm running into is that when I go to /media/media/downloads and try to move a file to its appropriate folder, I get the following error...

You need permission to perform this action

You require permission from Unix User\debian-transmission to make changes to this file.

I'm running Ubuntu and all commands need to be run through shell.

Thanks in advance.

Ok, so my OLD settings.json file had UMASK = 18 My NEW settings.json file has UMASK = 0

I also did a sudo chmod -R 777 /media/media/Downloads

now everything is accessable and working.

I'd really like to see FULL config override abilities from the WEB GUI rather than in a settings file. Just makes more sense.

Please reopen if this is still an issue and a Transmission bug.
