#414 Warning "no write access to write wav file" when ripping
In latest version 4.1.0 I get the warning "no write access to write wav file" when trying to rip a disc. I do not get any output related to the error when run with "grip -v". There seems to be nothing wrong with the target location's access rights to write the files to. Using version 4.0.1 there is no problem.
I had the same issue. I solved it by removing the "~/Music" directory.
Grip recreates it the next time!
Dont forget to save anything in that directory you want to keep :-)
Might be different directory on your machine. Look in the Config/Rip tab at "Rip file format". It will tell you where grip tries to save the wav-files.

This setting points to a writable directory '/tmp/grip/%A/%d/%n.wav' with correct access permissions. I have also tried different locations (e.g. in my home directory) but it's always the same.
We received a patch not to long ago, where the description sounds familiar to this bug.
Today we released a version 4.1.1 that hopefully fixed this issue.
FYI- I was seeing this same issue, was figureing it was just my machine that I hosed the permissions on...
I'm happy to report that 4.1.1 fixed the issue for me!
BTW, THANK YOU and everybody else involved for reviving this, particularly taking on the modernization side of it! It's much appreciated!
Closing as fixed, then. :-)
Thanks! Fixed for me, too.
