You should *never* set permissions to 777.

The drive directory needs only be readable/writable by the user that
the guacd service runs as. Making any directory world-writable, let
alone Guacamole's drive directory, is dangerous. If any account on
your server is compromised, even one with little to no privileges,
your users' files will be exposed.

There is no need to restart anything in this case. You only need to
restart things after upgrading Guacamole itself to a new version, and
then only guacd and Tomcat need to be restarted, not the entire
server.

Do you see any relevant messages from guacd in syslog?

Is drive redirection allowed according to the group policies of the
RDP server in question?
