OpenOffice 2.0 Novell Edition has I/O-Error with NFS-Access and SMB-Access
Last modified: 2006-04-09 17:49:35 UTC
I have to use an NFS-Server with SuSE 10.0 and Clients with this OS. User have Access to User-Share and an Global-Share. I have startet OO.org and will create a File. I become an Error-Message: "Cannot create File xxxx, I/O-Interrupt-Error". The Name from the File in this Message is not my Filename. File was create on NFS-Share, but i can´t open. I can create File locally and i can copy this File to an Server. If i open this File, i can this, but i can`t save this File, Error-Message ..... If i will access via SMB, i have this problem too. I have create NFS-Server and NFS-Clients with YaST. I have this Problem with all of my systems. Excuse me for my bad english please.
Created attachment 55162 [details] Errormessage 1 if i save the file
Created attachment 55163 [details] Error Message 2 , i have accept Error # 1
I was not able to replicate the issue here, Petr, could you try it out once if possible. Thankyou.
I have "re-migrated" to OOorg 1.1.5 and I don´t have the problem now. I think, with version 2.0 its a problem with the RPC, i hade problems with the kernel-based NFS-Server: error-messages from the lockd. With the daemon-based nfsserver i don´t had the problem, but this daemon doesn´t correctly run on my systems. OOorg 1.1.5 runs under kernel-based nfs correctly with high performance.
First, I am sorry for the late response. I missed this bug by a mistake. It is probably related to the messages from lockd. OOo-2.0 wants to create a lock when it saves a file. Could you please try to disable locking in OOo? You can do it if you comment out or remove the the lines: SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING=1 export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING from: /usr/lib/ooo-2.0/program/soffice Does it help?
I´m so happy, it´s help!! I have comment this Line (line 43 / first uncommend line)and i can save/open/write/create all my files. I have tested on 2 PC without problems or errors. But, behind an update of OOorg you must new edit this file. This problem dosn´t longer exist. Thank you Petr!
http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=54586 gives details informations over this topic.
It doesn't work because OOo 2.0 uses file locking by default and there is a problem with file locking over nfs, see bug 128784.
I have comment the Lines (line 43 and 44 / first and second uncommend line)and i can save/open/write/create all my files now. I have tested on 2 PC without problems or errors. But, behind an update of OOorg you must new edit this file. I have migrateted to StarOffice 8 SP1, i have comment the Lines in file "soffice" (/opt/staroffice8/program/soffice), i have not problems. Ihave tested with NFS an smbmount, no problems. My Server and Client-OS is SuSE 10.0
Well, I epxect that the problem will locking is fined on SL 10.1/SLES10/NLD10. Olaf, did we provide a fixed kernel for SL 10.0?
Yes, there is a patch for the kernel. So the problem is fixed.
