Not able to save configuration.yaml in notepad++

Configuration
1

Hi All,

I am totally new to home assistant and Rasberrypi installation. I installed Rasbian Jessie with pixel and did all in one home assistant installation for Rasberry pi. I did not install samba to access configuration file from my windows machine but used the following video to access it from notepad++.

I am now able to access my configuration.yaml file through notepad++ but I am not able to save it. My configuration.yaml file is located in /home/homeassistant/.homeassistant and not under my pi or hass folder. When I login to my rasberrypi through putty with my pi account, I had to use sudo command to edit the configuration file.

Can someone please help me on how I could save configuration file when I access it with notepad++?

I greatly appreciate all your help.

I used chmod to get permission to read and wirte configuration file. Now it works like a champ.

Thanks!

I’m having the exact same issue, where did you apply the chmod?
