Hello everyone. I hope I can get some help with this problem we are having.
We have a CIFS mount (from a NetApp) were we write files (php application). Then the files are being copied to a directory in the same CIFS filesystem, then a process on a Windows server picks up the file and deletes it. The thing is, later the php app, generates a new file and when it tries to copy it it says "the file doesn't exists". So if I go to the "copy" location and do an ls I don't see the file, but if I do ls -l "filename" then it shows!!! I issue a rm "filename" and I got a "no such file or directory", then I do a ls -l "filename" is not there anymore. here some steps: A.- On a CIFS filesystem /path/ on a RHEL 5 server (server1): 1.- PHP app generates file (test.txt) on /path/temp/ 2.- PHP app copies file from /path/temp/ to /path/final/ B.- On a Windows server accessing the same /path/ share (server2) 1.- Informatica sees the test.txt file on /path/final/ executes a proccess, deletes the file C.- On server 1 1.- PHP app generates file (test.txt) on /path/temp/ 2.- PHP app copies file from /path/temp/ to /path/final/ ----> the app fails with an error D.- Admin (ME) 1.- Goes to the server an does: ls -l /path/final/ ---> file is not there 2.- Does: ls -l /path/final/test.txt and gets: -rwxrwSrwx 1 wwwspool wwwspool 0 Nov 4 10:38 test.txt 3.- Does: rm /path/final/test.txt and gets: rm: cannot remove `test.txt': No such file or directory The cycle starts again on A. thanks for your help. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/options/samba
