Key points is "Samba" and "Linux". When you edit files via Samba share, it tries to lock files with fcntl(F_GETLEASE) if running on Linux. This in turn results in errors while opening such "locked" files. For more information see Samba docs here: http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/locking.html#id2616903 It's not clear why the problem happens with files you didn't changed, but I would suppose they are at least open via Samba. Anyway, disabling appropriate locking in Samba configuration will likely help. See the link above for details. -- Maxim Dounin http://nginx.org/en/donation.html _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
