Re: [Bug 359531] Re: LVM file name maximum length is shorter than in ext3
Yes, I had two filenames rejected for length when i copied across data from my old hdd. However, I thought two was pretty acceptable, so I just renamed them.

Sorry, I was mistaken, I'm not using LVM, I'm using the encrypted home directory (ecryptfs).

[Bug 359531] Re: LVM file name maximum length is shorter than in ext3
I was studying how LVM works and by now I know this is only a logical system. Upon it the alternate install process made me a fine ext3. The beginning of dr -T is: FilesystemType 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/noname-root ext3 I measured: file name size 144 char was accepted, 145 was too long: non...@noname:~$ touch 1___144 non...@noname:~$ touch 1145 touch: cannot touch `1145': File name too long Then I installed 8.10 and the system works fine. Both of them were encrypted LVM. -- LVM file name maximum length is shorter than in ext3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359531 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 359531] Re: LVM file name maximum length is shorter than in ext3
Hi, thanks for the follow-up. So your tests suggest that ext3 long- filename support is broken in Ubuntu 9.04, while the use of encrypted LVM may or may not be influencing the problem. As 9.04 is still under development, can you add what date your install disc was from, and whether you tried to update the system to the latest state? I'll have to test this on an install of my own to be able to mark it confirmed, but am a bit pressed for time right now - hopefully someone else can pick up on this before I get to it, because this could turn out nasty as a dist-upgrade bug. -- LVM file name maximum length is shorter than in ext3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359531 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 359531] Re: LVM file name maximum length is shorter than in ext3
Hi, you're right that ext3 has a limited filename size at 255 bytes - it depends on what character encoding you use how many characters that implies, but at most 255. In your example with only underscores and numbers I think you should be able to fit 255. It works for me. LVM is not a file system, but rather a modern partitioning model. Inside a logical volume, you would still set up a file system, like ext3. So... my first guess is that perhaps the installer selected something other than ext3 for the file system in your LVM test. Could you check what file system is in use? One quick way to do this is to look at the output of df -T (see the man page for details). -- LVM file name maximum length is shorter than in ext3 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/359531 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
