Hello/Hi/Greetings,

I have a network attached USB drive on my TP-Link router.  It is accessible by the Linux box that Piwigo is installed on.
I am mounting the USB drive using "curlftpfs" into "/mnt/photoMount"
I am then trying to symlink the folder using "ln -s /mnt/photoMount/volume(sda1)/Photos  /var/www/html/piwigo/galleries"
The symlink exists and I can navigate the folder at /var/www/html/piwigo..." All this works fine.

I then try and do a "Quick local synchronisation" on the Dashboard but nothing new is found

I have also symlinked another folder that is not in the "/mnt/" folder (actually tried "~/Desktop" and this works.  The new folder appears in piwigo albums list.

I have added edited sites-available / sites-cofigured to follow symlinks which has been tested by symlinking to another folder successfully.

I am stuck for what to try next?
Regards
