USB Mount Errors

[pbix]

I am using the USB mount feature for the first time and having an issue.

The command I used on my Linux box is below and returned no message.

Code: Select all

sudo mount -t cifs -o username=paul,password=*******,domain=WORKGROUP //192.168.2.1/share_1 ~/route

The mount command returns this.

Code: Select all

[//192.168.2.1/share_1 on /home/paul/router type cifs (rw,relatime,vers=1.0,cache=strict,username=paul,domain=WORKGROUP,uid=0,noforceuid,gid=0,noforcegid,addr=192.168.2.1,unix,posixpaths,serverino,mapposix,acl,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,actimeo=1)

But an attempt to copy to the mount point give an error.

Code: Select all

paul@paul-HP-xw4400-Workstation ~ $ sudo cp post.pdf router
[sudo] password for paul: 
cp: cannot create regular file 'router/post.pdf': Permission denied
paul@paul-HP-xw4400-Workstation ~ $ ls -l router
total 0
drwx------ 2 root root 0 Feb 27 20:06 lost+found
paul@paul-HP-xw4400-Workstation ~ $ 

I would attach a screenshot of what I see on the router but an attempt to upload it gave the forum message "board quote full". But in summary the mount is shown with one user "paul" with R/W access displayed.

If there are some ideas out there I would love to hear them.

Use an external source

I use "Greenshot" with "http://imgur.com/"

then paste

What version are you using?

Fix around here

Well here is the screen shot but why is our forum quota full?



The version I am using is v1.9.1

[ispyisail]

That fix is in 1.9.2

Screen shots have been like that forever

saves Eric some money I guess

[pbix]

What is fixed in v1.9.2? I do not see anything in the release notes about this issue. Are we saying that mounting was not possible at all before v1.9.2?

[Lantis]

No issue on my end.
Do not think this is related (or fixed) in 1.9.2.

Happy to compare configs if you like?

The only difference I see is that your mounted drive has no "lost+found" like mine does and instead has other files there by default.

In my case I only get the change to mount my USB drive if I format it first. This seems strange to me. Do you get this behavior? The screen says "no mounted USB disks detected" and only the format dialog appears. Once formatted the drive mounts and I am given the change to create shares for it.

I continue to poke at it.

[Lantis]

No don't see that at all. Haven't formatted it in years.
It is NTFS by the way in case that is another difference.

I do occasionally manually restart the USB service because of a DLNA issue.
The page says that there is no mounted USB (because I unmounted it).
If you replug the device or /etc/init.d/usb_storage restart it fires back to life.

What is the drive size?

There was a size limit at one stage?
