Deleted "volumes" cant access external now

[cmoroy]

I had problems downloading from Vuze, I get this error message Error : I/O Exception while initializing download of 'http://torcache.com/torrent/8688C7D3B405F6D6DC5E788E089D8E10BB41069A.torrent':java.io.IOException: Configuration error. This is not a directory: /Volumes/Time Machine Backups 1/vuze downloads


So I misread some advice on a vuze forum and deleted the file that says "volumes" now I cannot mount my external HD that has my time machine back ups or any of my other stuff. The external shows up in disk utility and I ran a repair on it but no luck. Please help I'm lost without that Drive

Go to terminal and do the following.

cd /
mkdir Volumes
sudo chown -R root:admin Volumes
sudo chmod -R 1777 Volumes

Go to disk utility and see if it plays ball. Then ditch Vuze and get transmission.

With regard to the core problem though, did you actually check to see if there is a directory called vuze downloads on Time Machine Backups 1?
