I have just moved from Windows to Ubuntu. Before I uninstalled windows I put some documents that I needed on a CD. Once I had installed Ubuntu I put the CD in to get the files back. But all I get is the message...

Error mounting /dev/sr0 at /media/chris/UDF Volume: Command-line `mount -t "udf" -o "uhelper=udisks2,nodev,nosuid,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,umask=0077" "/dev/sr0" "/media/chris/UDF Volume"' exited with non-zero exit status 32: mount: block device /dev/sr0 is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sr0,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

People are not going to migrate from windows if Ubuntu can't even do a simple task like open a CD without this meaningless error message.

Here is something you can try:

code:

gksu gedit /etc/fstab

then add this code after the last line in fstab

code:

/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

/dev/sr0 /media/cdrom udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0 0

worked like magic as I had already existing /media/cdrom created by sudo mkdir /media/cdrom
