Samba: Can't upload files, part of file locked by other process
Hi,
I have a really weird problem with my Samba server.
I've configured a share just fine and I can browse it and all. I can create folders and empty files but when I try to copy a file from my computer to the share it uploads the whole file and then says that a part of the file is locked by another process.. I get the same if I try to edit a text file..
I can see the file on the server so it's uploaded but when I click cancel it gets removed..
I've never had this issue before and have no idea how to fix it.
It's a new server with a fresh Samba install, I just copied the config from my old server. I'm running Debian 6.
If I check smbstatus I get this for the file I'm trying to upload:
This is my config:3042 204 DENY_ALL 0x6019f RDWR NONE /mnt/common/test/opensolaris-default.jpg Tue Jun 5 11:06:03 2012

Does anyone know what's wrong here?

Ok it doesn't seem like it's Samba. The problem is that /mnt/common is a NFS share from another server and that's the problem.. However it worked just fine on my old server (it's dead now) but on this new one it won't work...

I mounted the share as sshfs instead and it works fine!
