Intrepid Ibex, Updates through today, 07.10.2008.
Setting:
To share my files across my computers, I set up a small Debian server. I use
Samba to serve my files. The server is working correctly (Windows XP, and my
Hardy install and a Fedora install use it without any problems. I can see the
share and open files from it. I can also move, delete and rename files on the
sharewith Nautilus.
What should happen:
When I hit "save" in an application, I should be able to save a file directly
to the network share.
What actually happens:
When I try to save a file that I opened to the network share again,
things fall apart:
- OpenOffice (2.4.1 on one machine, 3.0rc2 from ppa on another) replies (in
German): "Fehler beim Speichern des Dokumentes [filename]: Allgemeiner Fehler.
Allgemeiner Ein-/Ausgabefehler"
That translates roughly to: "Error saving file: common error. Common
Input/Outputerror"
If I save a file under a new name, OpenOffice will create the file on the
share with the name, but give me the error and the filesize is 0 Bytes.
- GEdit does this: (Open file, change something, save as (new name)):
create the file under the new name with 0 Bytes, give me error "File
/path/to/filename could not be saved. unexpected error: not a
directory". When I start Gedit from terminal, I get to see "WARNING **:
Hit unhandled case 4 (Not a directory) in parse_error.
- Bluefish: this one is interesting because a little different: it
manages to write the file without errors - but only to a new file. I
cannot open a file, change something and save it under the same name.
Additional info:
- I can save to local shares without any problem. This happens specifically
with networked Samba shares.
- This problem is the same on 3 computers. They are all pretty much naked,
new installs.
- My /etc/fstab line for the samba share:
//192.168.x.x/Daten /home/christian/Server cifs
auto,user,username=xxx,password=xxx,uid=xxx,gid=xxx,iocharset=utf8,codepage=cp850
0 0
Best regards,
Christian
