vi is able to make a backup copy of whatever 755 file i try to edit in my curlftpfs mounted directory (i.e. original: somefile.php, backup: somefile.php~), but editing it gives me this error in vi: "test.php" E507: Close error for backup file (add ! to override)
I mounted like this: sudo curlftpfs -o allow_other ftp://user:p...@ftp.mysite.com /home/steve/mydirectory/ and I have tried many other variations of mounting the directory with curlftpfs with no success. Apparently the IT guys were able to get it working on whatever machines they were using: "....Actually they created a "test" FTP subuser for your account and had no problems to edit the classes.php file over curlftpfs....." hope this was helpful -- vim can't open files under curlftpfs directory https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120018 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
