Did you installed Filebrowser on your new system?

Similar to your Nextcloud challange. The database user would need to be adjusted as currently access is denied.

… Ok. what’s the best way of doing this? should I use the dietpi-config or dietpi-drive\_manager to change this? or is is a case of using `chmod 755 /mnt/hdd/` to give access read write access to the whole hard drive?

This has nothing to do with the HDD directly. We would need to set a new password for the Allo user inside the MariaDB database. I would need to check how to get the current password reset

following should recreate the allo database user password

```auto
dbpassword=$(mawk -F'[=]' '/DB_PASSWORD/{print $2}' /opt/allo/.env)
mysql -e "grant all privileges on \`allo\`.* to 'allo'@localhost identified by '$dbpassword';flush privileges"
dietpi-services start

looks like your boot media was not correctly mounted. Check the USB stick is correctly connected.

do you have an SD card? If yes, flash a new image to SD and complete basic setup. Once done, we could check USB stick for data corruption issues.

ok connect your USB stick to the running system and share following (just connect, no need to mount)

```auto
lsblk -o name,fstype,label,size,ro,type,mountpoint,partuuid,uuid

```
