Stale NFS file handle
Last modified: 2005-10-24 11:32:27 UTC
I wrote even a testprogram to check the File Locking on my kernel based NFS Server in Suse Linux 10.0. If I execute F_WRLCK with fcntl I get the error message "Stales NFS file handle" and if I try to free the same area later I get "No locks available". lockd is running, testprogramm works fine on SUSE 9.3 and 9.2. The file isn't deleted/removed or something like that. Access rights are guaranteed. Both testmachines are SUSE 10.0. If I have a SUSE 10.0 client and do the same on a SUSE 9.2 kernel based NFS server it works too... ATTENTION: The Machines are x86-64 but I installed the 32bit Version of SUSE 10.0.
What does ``Stabel Snapshot 2'' mean? Please test with SUSE LINUX 10.0 final
I'm sorry. I didn't see the "Final" entry. I used the final release.
Corrected version
There's a known problem with NFS file locking in 10.0, see bug #128784 This will hopefully go out with the next update kernel. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 128784 ***
