CIFS: cannot copy file: network name no longer available

bart

Hello,

When copying a bulk of files to the alfresco network share, I constantly get this message: cannot copy "filename": the specified network name is no longer available.

Sometimes: \\..\alfresco is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.

I manage to copy some files, but after some files have been copied, this message appears again and again. Quit annoying if you just have 30 days to evaluate alfresco …

thx

Bart

Hi,

Are there any errors logged in the alfresco.log file ?. It sounds like there is an exception that is causing the CIFS session to be closed.

Cheers

Hi Bart,

What version of Alfresco are you running ?.

The problem is the '&' in the file name, an integrity check is causing the exception saying that the character is not valid in a file name. There have been some changes to this in recent versions of Alfresco, I'll check with one of the other developers to see if the '&' character is now valid.

Cheers

Gary

bart

Hello Gary,

I'm running the latest version I guess, 2.0.0

I already noticed that the ampersand & was a problem. But I think there's more than that issue alone.

Thanks for your feedback of the developer team.

I tried to change my "file-server.xml" configuration in many ways, but nothing seems to work.

Last try was to change the CIFS host name:

<host name="${localname}_A"/> –> host name="${localname}_ELSE"/>‍

It worked for the first bulk copy, but after a while same problem again!

Maybe some NETBIOS cache issue?
Ever seen this stacktrace before?

Help is welcome…

Tnx in advance, Paolo.

gary_spencer

Hi,

What's the client OS/version/service pack ?, what sort of network connection (wired/wireless/VPN) ?.

In this case the low level socket/NetBIOS connection is being reset by the client for some reason. The Alfresco CIFS server is responding to a file read request.

I think I've only seen something like this a couple of times, but I've not been able to reproduce it here.

Cheers

Gary

paolo_bettini

Hi Gary.

OS: XP pro SP2.
Network connections: I disabled everything but wired.

I changed again the host name, and now it seems to work quite fine…
It's like if windows cached wrong username and pwd, but no way to clean them. New host name, and you start from a clear situation… that's the feeling anyway!

I'm gonna stress this configuration to see if it works fine…

Thank you very much for now, I'll keep you up to date.
Paolo.

gary_spencer

Hi,

Windows does have a habit of caching username/passwords which can be a problem if you want to switch to another account. But that would normally only affect the initial CIFS session setup, in this case the error is in the middle of reading a file.

Cheers

Gary

paolo_bettini

Well… it seems to work now…

I was trying to configure my eclipse to deploy directly inside alfresco, under the webroot via AVM, and maybe this create some sort of problems.

At the beginning I had the same problem also only using the windows file manager, but now I have decoupled eclipse, and I've cleaned in some way my CIFS configuration changing the host name, it works fine.

No idea about the real cause of the problem, by the way I can work now and it's quite enough!

Thanks again for support,
Paolo.

Hello Gary,

Still having this issue …

I tried using an ftp client ie Filezilla. This works smoothly, only some caracters in the filename gave issues: trema, ampersand …

But when trying to open the space via the CFIS link, I still get an error message: "the path 'file:///\\share_a\… does not exist or is not a directory"

Thanks for your help guys,

Bart

Hi,

There are fixes in teh 2.1 code to line up what the various protocols consider as illegal characters and what the repository considers are illegal.

Hello,

I'm using the community release 2.1.0 build 482

Hi,

Is this due there being an ampersand or other problem character in the file:// URL ?, it could be a URL encoding problem.

Cheers

Hey everyone,

Not only do I experience the same issue but we're up to 3.4d and the problem is STILL happening. In fact, it's been logged in a ticket:

http://issues.alfresco.com/jira/browse/ALF-561?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Achangehistory-tabpanel#issue-tabs

The difference seems to evolve with the revisions of Alfresco, however. In the ticket (referencing 3.1 I believe), I was able to track specific errors. With 3.4, the problem is that the transfer runs, then croaks with the old "the specified network name is no longer available", BUT unlike the ticket the server doesn't come to a crashing halt. I can still go back to the CIFS share and browse and/or try the transfer again.

I've set up a test that I can reproduce every time:
- Connect to 3.4d alf server (kubuntu) via CIFS (win XP)
- Send/Copy 1 massive directory (1.37GB, containing 736 files, 93 directories) TO the alf server -> WORKS
- Get/Copy that same massive directory FROM the server -> FAILS
- Able to browse CIFS
- Restart alf server
- Get/Copy that same massive directory FROM the server -> FAILS
- Able to browse CIFS

So as you can see, it's an issue of direction (get/put). That said, it could also be size or quantity (I'll test that soon). What's worse: my logs - catalina.out, alfresco.log, and webquickstart.log - all show *nothing*, as if everything is fine.

Update:

I was itching to try out one more test, so here's the latest:

- Connect to 3.4d alf server (kubuntu) via CIFS (win XP)
- Send/Copy 1 massive directory (1.37GB, containing 736 files, 93 directories) TO the alf server -> WORKS
- Get/Copy that same massive directory FROM the server -> FAILS
- Able to browse CIFS
- Restart alf server
- Get/Copy that same massive directory FROM the server -> FAILS
- Able to browse CIFS
- Get/Copy a smaller subdirectory of the massive directory (351MB, 249 files, 14 directories) FROM the server -> WORKS

Now, I can refine my findings to hypothesize that we have an issue of direction (get), and after more narrowing, size. I'm going to get my staff to see what the magic size number is (between 351Mb and 1.37GB) that causes the overload. Perhaps it's not size but rather the time it takes to transfer? Paolo may have been onto something with his suggestion of a buffer/timeout setting …

HTH,
-Scott.
