This is usually a permission problem related to the ALBD service account. It may also be due to a permission problem on the VOB storage directories. What does the view_log on the client say? What does the samba log for the client say? Do you have log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m in your smb.conf file? This will make it easier to debug by creating a separate log file for each client. I've attached a text file with some initial troubleshooting steps you can follow.

text_file_delta error Unable to construct cleartext for object X in VOB Error: Type manager "text_file_delta" failed construct_version operation. This is probably the most common error to occur in an interop environment. The error is most likely due to a failure to map the ALBD service account to a valid UNIX™ account. The client may see this as the error message "Incorrect Function.". The error text above will be logged in the view_log on the view server host. Steps to debug the problem 1. Identify the ALBD service account. There are several methods that can use used to find the account used to run the ALBD service. 1. Windows NT 4.0 1. Select Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Services 2. Double Click on the Atria Location Broker service 3. Text Box "This account" contains the name of the ALBD service account. service. 2. Windows 2000/XP 1. Start -> Run -> services.msc OR Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services 2. Double Click on the Atria Location Broker service 3. Click on "Log On" Tab 4. Text Box "This account" contains the name of the ALBD service account. service. 3. All versions of Windows 1. Start -> Run -> regedit 2. Find key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Albd 3. Value "ObjectName" contains the name of the ALBD service account. 2. Does the ALBD service account have a corresponding UNIX™ account? 1. YES. Proceed to the next step 2. NO. Check to see if the Samba username.map file contains an entry to map the ALBD service account to a valid UNIX™ account that also has access to the VOB(s). See Configuring username.map <config_username_map.html> for information on how to set up this file. If username.map has been modified, new connections will pick up the changes. If you want to affect existing connections, you will need to do one of: 1. Send a HUP signal to all running smbd processes. This will cause the smbd processes to reread the configuration file. You must be root to send the signal. kill -HUP `smbstatus -p` 2. Restart Samba — usually /etc/init.d/samba stop /etc/init.d/samba start The client will need to wait a few minutes before retrying access. The existing connection as the unmapped user must terminate so that it won't be reused. New connections will be made as the mapped user. The user may need to unmount the VOS, wait a few minutes and remount the vobs. Alternatively, you can stop and restart Samba but this could disrupt some users. If this doesn't fix the problem (i.e., the error continues to occur), proceed to the next step. 3. Does the UNIX™ account have access to the VOB storage directory and subdirectories? A common occurrence is that the UNIX™ account does not have access to the top-level VOB storage directory or subdirectories. Possible reasons for this are: 1. Top-level VOB storage directory or subdirectory has no permission for group or other. 1. No permission for group, other mode 700 (rwx------) 2. No permission for other mode 770 (rwxrwx---) mode 750 (rwxr-x---) Correct the permissions on the vob storage directories. Usually mode 755 is best for the top-level storage directory. For subdirectories or vob storage pools, see cleartool man protectvob for instructions on setting permissions. 2. UNIX™ account does not belong to the proper group to access the VOB. This should not happen if the ALBD service account is the same as (or mapped to) the UNIX™ VOB owner account. Correct permissions on the VOB or have user added to the correct group. 4. Still having difficulty accessing VOB data? If you are still having problems accessing VOB data, you will need to look at the Samba logs and increase the debugging level of the smbd processes to see exactly what is happening. See Difficulties mounting VOBS or accessing shares <share_access.html> for more information. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ previous <samba_debug.html> up <troubleshooting.html> next <share_access.html> Home <samba.html> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric M.
