What is the file system on the mapped drive?
Aye would make sense but the Cache and prefs directories (along with contents) are indeed successfully created. I thought it may be some locking issue due to it being samba but I assume it is known to work since the network drive location as an option is specifically in PCP. The underlying filesystem on the NAS is BTRFS. >From the Pi, writes seem fine : Code: -------------------- tc@lms:~$ ls -al /usr/local/slimserver/Ca* lrwxrwxrwx 1 tc staff 26 Dec 8 00:55 /usr/local/slimserver/Cache -> /mnt/data/slimserver/Cache/ -------------------- Code: -------------------- tc@lms:~$ touch /usr/local/slimserver/Cache/xxx tc@lms:~$ ls /usr/local/slimserver/Cache/ DownloadedPlugins/ cookies.dat stringcache.armv7l-linux.bin InstalledPlugins/ plugin-data.yaml xxx -------------------- Code: -------------------- tc@lms:~$ sudo touch /usr/local/slimserver/Cache/xxx2 tc@lms:~$ ls -al /usr/local/slimserver/Cache/ total 3072 drwxr-xr-x 2 tc staff 0 Dec 8 07:23 ./ drwxr-xr-x 2 tc staff 0 Dec 8 00:55 ../ drwxr-xr-x 2 tc staff 0 Dec 8 00:55 DownloadedPlugins/ drwxr-xr-x 2 tc staff 0 Dec 8 00:55 InstalledPlugins/ -rwxr-xr-x 1 tc staff 17 Dec 8 00:55 cookies.dat -rwxr-xr-x 1 tc staff 26506 Dec 8 00:55 plugin-data.yaml -rwxr-xr-x 1 tc staff 148887 Dec 8 00:55 stringcache.armv7l-linux.bin -rwxr-xr-x 1 tc staff 0 Dec 8 07:21 xxx -rwxr-xr-x 1 tc staff 0 Dec 8 07:23 xxx2 -------------------- Don't worry too much if you're not sure, although I'd prefer it on the NAS where I can quickly recover, given what mherger has said I'm happy to failover to caching/prefs on the sdcard. Oh as an aside can I just say PCP is such an excellent bit of work, the whole thing is really well put together. :) Also mherger, said this before but thanks for LMS and all the work you continue to do gratis. LMS has been my go to for such a long time, and as far as I can see it's still one of the best bits of software of its type out there. :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Prime Heretic's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=40168 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109404 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
