[OCP\Files\NotPermittedException] Could not create folder "/appdata_ocfmw89yr7pg/preview/a/b/a/d/2/c/9/34634" Version 5.4.0

[coesy]

I've been trying to run occ preview:generate-all -vvv. It gets quite a lot of the way through the folders and just errors out with the error in the title. I've checked and the folder already exists, it seems to be trying to create the folder, see's that it exists and errors out. I keep getting stuck at this point. It seems that there are a few forum posts on this, is there a fix for this now? This is 5.4.0

Thanks

Try running this command as the user this folder belongs too. Usually this should be www-data
sudo -u www-data occ preview:generate-all -vvv
