Minimserver can't read files on external drive

Thanks for the screenshot. As you can see the WaveCast folder of the My_Book drive in Finder, there is probably a problem with your MinimServer contentDir setting.

To find the correct setting to use for contentDir, do the following:

1) In the Finder window for WaveCast, hold the Option key and click the gear icon
2) In the drop-down menu, click 'Copy "WaveCast" as Pathname'
3) In the main Finder menu on the menu bar, click Edit and then select Show Clipboard

What do you see in the Show Clipboard window? The should be the path that you need to use for the MinimServer contentDir property.

Edit: For some reason, your screenshot doesn't show a gear icon in the toolbar (step 1). This might be hidden under the "3 dots" icon. If not, use View > Customise Toolbar to add the gear icon to the toolbar.
