[Bug 486443] Re: [upstream] Can not save files to NAS cifs - needs nobrl or disable locking

 

I tried following your steps to install LibreOffice on a recently loaded
10.04 system. I wanted to install the entire suite, not just writer so I
tried selecting libreoffice in Aptitude. That results in the following
error:

libreoffice:

 Depends: libreoffice-core but it is not going to be installed

 Depends: libreoffice-writer but it is not going to be installed

 Depends: libreoffice-calc but it is not going to be installed

 Depends: libreoffice-impress but it is not going to be installed

 Depends: libreoffice-draw but it is not going to be installed

 Depends: libreoffice-math but it is not going to be installed

 Depends: libreoffice-base but it is not going to be installed

 Depends: libreoffice-report-builder-bin but it is not going to be
installed

 Depends: libreoffice-filter-mobiledev but it is not going to be
installed

 Depends: libreoffice-java-common but it is not going to be installed


This is after it comes up with an additional changes dialog stating that OpenOffice related packages will be removed.

So, that must not be complete steps to transition form OO to LO. Could
you please elaborate further? Thanks!

Title:
  [upstream] Can not save files to NAS cifs - needs nobrl or disable

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  Ubuntu Karmic - recent upgrade from Jaunty - also moved from Gnome to
  KDE

  Open Office under KDE can't save files to my Maxtor NAS drive. If I
  navigate to a file, all the folder names are displayed as numbers
  rather than letters. If I try to create a new file on the the NAS
  drive, an empty file is created, and then Open Office displays a
  General IO error.

  OpenOffice continues to work correctly if I switch the desktop to
  Gnome

  A little more info - in the cases described above, I was connecting to the
  NAS using the "Network / Samba Shares" option in the Open Office file
  manager.

  I also have the files system mounted using the following entry in
  fstab

  /MAXTOR/GREENOCK /media/network/greenock cifs
  credentials=/root/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777
  0 0

  If I access the files via the mount point, I can update an existing file,
  but "SaveAs" gives a General Input/Ouput error, and creates an empty file
  with the correct name

  ccheney - note

  This appears to be an issue with kernel cifs mounting possibly with
  mand option, versus when using gnome and gvfs-fuse which does not use
  regular cifs method to access files. This does not appear to be KDE
  specific. Try using the cifs nobrl option to see if this helps.
