when i use textual i get a "transfer with search failed: permission
denied" when i try to initiate a searchbot\_result file transfer.

when i use limechat it works as it should and the file downloads.

what could the problem be with textual that needs modifying in the
settings?

thanks

this looks like permission issues on your computer, make sure textual
is allowed to write files in the download directory

face palm!

it looks like it was a firewall rule blocking some outgoing
connections.

all is well now. thanks!
