Hi,


Congratulations !
You have passed the compile and install steps.
ntfs-3g has mounted the volume (with no permission control, because you have not set options for permission control).



This smells more like a fuse issue than a ntfs-3g issue. Instead of doing "cd /mnt" can you display the ownership and permissions for mnt, then for its contents :



Regards

Jean-Pierre

*edit*

And I see :



So you have not started ntfs-3g as root, hence you are probably not allowed to access /mnt.

Jean-Pierre

I've installed the compiled image of ntfs-3g-2009.11.14 into OpenSolaris 0906 (build snv 111b) and it works.

I now need to reboot into the latest build to send you the /mnt information.

Your thoughts that it could be a fuse issue maybe correct. I've lodged an Open Solaris bug report.

You previously commented that you were not an Solaris expert, whilst I'm not a Sun employee their maybe people who would welcome talking with you to resolve any outstanding issues. Could you send me an email address to facilitate the introduction.

John

Jean-Pierre

the command /src/ntfs-3g /dev/dsk/c7d0p1 /mnt was run as root (# rather than $ for normal users is the give away.)

the output as requested from ls -ld /mnt is:

ls -ld /mnt

John

PS I'm running the two commands separately as doing ls -l normally instigates the shutdown/panic. J

As expected ls -l /mnt caused the machine to shutdown.

John

Hi,



You've done it !


This might be because you use /mnt as a mountpoint. usually /mnt contains mountpoint, and you have disturbed access to other devices. Please create a subdirectory in /mnt (say disk), and mount to /mnt/disk

Hi,

Can you try the attached patch to src/secaudit.c ?

Note : you should still get the following warning, which should not harm.


Regards

Jean-Pierre

Jean-Pierre

Patch applied and ntfs-3g recompiled.

Sorry to advice, the mount point suggestion you described didn't work neither with yesterdays compiled version nor the one with the patch applied. In both cases immediately shutsdown the system.

I've logged a bug with OpenSolaris who are suggesting that fuse needs to be recompiled from source and reinstalled . Would this affect the ntfs-3g?

John

Hi,


Very good.
And thank you very much for your contribution in porting ntfs-3g to opensolaris. All the needed patches will be integrated in next version.

Just to be sure, can you display the contents of /mnt before trying to mount ntfs-3g ?

I agree with the suggestion. The traces you got made me think of some version mismatch between the two parts of fuse. When you recompile, be sure to compile and install both fuse parts (the kernel one and the library one).
This should not affect ntfs-3g. I would however recompile it for safety.

Regards

Jean-Pierre

Jean-Pierre

I have removed, recompiled and reinstall fuse into the OpenSolaris kernel. The latest build of ntfs-3g-2009.11.14 now works!

It appears that fuse uses features that are incompatible with the development builds of OpenSolaris.

Thank you for your patience in working with me to get the latest update working.

To assist, when you release the next version can the various patches be incorporated?

To you, your colleagues and family I offer Best Wishes for Christmas and enjoy the New Year.

John

Hi again,


My pleasure, thank you.

I have released a few days ago a release candidate version with the opensolaris patches I knew at the time (but not all you need). No new release is planned until January.

Thank you, a merry Christmas and a happy New Year to you also.

Regards

Jean-Pierre

@ jgireland : Thanks for continuing down the trail. I'm away from my OpenSolaris box and can't test any of the new stuff you guys tried.

What's your final experience now that it compiles? It looks like you're still having trouble. All i need is read access to NTFS volumes, does that work?

@ jpa : Thanks for all your technical support help. What's up with OpenSolaris, why is it such a headache? Is it that the FUSE port isn't as mature?? Do you know what's coming down the pike in terms of OpenSolaris NTFS support?

Thanks again.

Hi,


My pleasure to get help to make ntfs-3g available in more situations.

Not a real headache, but I was not aware of a few things specific to opensolaris, the major one being the lack of extended attributes (or maybe, just differences in the way to handle them). As a consequence features described in http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g ... ttributes/
will not be available on opensolaris until somebody makes the necessary adaptations to fuse and ntfs-3g.

Jean-Pierre

Before this, I ran "./configure --prefix=/usr" and "make", as regular user.
"make install" was run as root.
What could be the problem here?

Hi,


There seems to be something wrong when installing the source headers. Did you make an update of your building environment recently ? in the install manual for Linux, the option -c is mentioned as ignored, it may be different on OpenSolaris.
I see on http://marcofalchi.blogspot.com/2010/01 ... laris.html an example of successful compilation and install on OpenSolaris (with a probable old version kept in the shell cache, causing an old version to be called when the full directory is not indicated).

Please check the compilation went through :

If so, try to regenerate the configure :

And retry ./configure, etc.

Regards

Jean-Pierre

Thanks, it works now.
Thank you for your effort in bringing us the best ntfs driver to opensolaris platform.

Dear JPA

Thank you for the updated version. I've just recompiled it under OpenSolaris B134 and it works perfectly transferring 65000 files amounting to 6.9 GB.

My only comments are:

1. the documentation does not refer to the need to load and compile pkg-config-0.23
2. the need to recompile fuse
3. gcc complains with a number of warnings - this is the compiler not fuse but ....

These comments are only made to make the adoption of ntfs-3g a simple if a little time consuming matter (it took about 1.5 hours to finally get the whole lot working - not too long for a geek but to long for a company exec. - I fall into both camps.)

Keep up the good work and thanks
John

Hi John,


Good to hear.

... and it will not, at least until I know what this is about.

This is strange. I am not aware of any change since ntfs-3g-2009.11.14 leading to such requirement. Support for selective time stamp updating requires a fuse update, but this was meant to be checked as a condition for providing the support (or are you just meaning that the fuse version bundled with OpenSolaris is not appropriate, which your reported earlier ?)

Do you mean warnings while compiling fuse, or while compiling ntfs-3g ? In this latter situation, can you gzip the warnings and attach them ?


I agree this should be the case, but releasing code for not-owned platforms is not an easy task, and I need precise items on which I can act. If you can write a few lines about procedures specific to OpenSolaris, I can include them in the readme file.
There had been a release candidate for four weeks. Its main purpose was to collect problem reports before the real release, but I got none related to OpenSolaris.

Regards

Jean-Pierre

Jean-Pierre

Sorry for the delay in responding and I will send the requested information. All my comments related to ntfs-3g not fusefs

There is another issue related to USB attached drives - I'm getting the following error.

Any ideas?

Hi John,


So, if you have a bunch of warnings, it might be useful if I have details.


I guess this is just your method for identifying the physical address....

You apparently are not mounting as root, and the first condition mentioned in http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged for mounting as a plain user is probably not met in your situation (as far as I remember, using the internal fuse is not possible on OpenSolaris), so you have no other option.

Maybe you have a "sudo" which can be set up to allow mounting/unmounting through a simple command.

Regards

Jean-Pierre

Jean Pierre

The command was run with su privileges using the opensolairs equivalent 'pfexec'.

I've reinstalled fusefs, libfuse and ntfs-3g without success as you can see below.

I've rebooted into windows and run chkdsk /f without errors being reported. I can load the XP partition on the main system drive without any difficulty!

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries have been installed in:
/usr/local/lib

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries
in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and
specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR'
flag during linking and do at least one of the following:
- add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable
during execution
- use the `-RLIBDIR' linker flag

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for
more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.

Hi John,


This looks like an error in the low-level io. Are you able to read FAT-formatted devices ?
Can you extract the ntfs boot sector :


Thanks. These are minor warnings, I will try to avoid them.

Regards

Jean-Pierre

Dear Jean-Pierre

Thank you for the advice - I agree that it looks like a low level io issue. The dd command confirms this suggested diagnosis and a bug report will be lodged with OpenSolaris.

John
