Is it possible that there is a symlink or something that points to all of those other files on some other drive, and SMB is not following it? No, the disk share shows the exact same files as the user share. There is also no symlink that I am aware of. Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Does the disk share show the same files that the user share shows when you access both with SMB? Does the disk share show the same files that the user share shows when you access both with NFS? Quote Link to comment
wishie Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 (edited) Disk Share for disk2 (MP3s folder) over SMB = 59 files Disk Share for disk2 (MP3s folder) over NFS = 6375 files User Share for Music (MP3s folder) over SMB = 59 files User Share for Music (MP3s folder) over NFS = 6375 files Edited January 11 by wishie fixed typo Quote Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 @wishie, I think the implied question was "In all of the various displays over SMB have the exact same 59 files in them?" I don't know quite how you could check all of the 6375 files that NFS has but you could probably verify that random selected sample of files are present in both the User Share and the Disk Share, and make sure that the 59 Files that show up under SMB are included in the NFS list.

wishie Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 Yes, the 59 files over SMB, in that MP3s folder, are exactly the same. And yes, all 59 files seen on the SMB share are also visible on the NFS share of the same folder. Quote Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) I also requested that you do this: On 1/10/2024 at 7:25 AM, Frank1940 said: @wishie, consider copying off all the files onto a Flash drive or a external HD (probably faster) using NFS and see if you have any problems with either the copy operation or file listing after that. If you find nothing there then make a new share--- or a new directory in Music (like, BackMP3) ---and copy them back using SMB. I would recommend installing the Unassigned Devices plugin and format the external media to be a format that can be read by either your Windows PC or your MAC. Plug it into the appropriate client and copy it back to Unraid using SMB. The purpose of this exercise is see if it will find some files with naming issues. If either copy fails on a file. Figure out a way to avoid trying copying it. Edited January 11 by Frank1940 Posted prematuerly Quote Link to comment
wishie Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 I will have to get an external drive big enough and give that a go.. maybe this afternoon. 1 Quote Link to comment
wishie Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 Ive managed to figure it out, and it is indeed special chars in filenames that was causing the issues. Freestyle\ -\ �gon\ som\ Glittrarn\ 98.mp3 Me\'Shell\ Ndeg�Ocello\ -\ * La\ Cream\ -\ Chate�u\ d\'Amour.mp3 and a few others.. but about 9 files in total caused the issue 1 Quote Link to comment
Frank1940 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 (edited) For future referance for anyone else who might have this problem, how did you fix the problem? Please describe in enough detail to allow that person to do it the same way as you did. (Example: Don't say "changed file name". Rather say, used Linux command, XX, from the command line using the Unraid's GUI terminal.) EDIT: And mark your answer as the Solution. Edited January 12 by Frank1940 Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 When I had a similar problem with invalid characters, the files/folders would show up in Windows File Explorer, but the filename column would be blank, only other columns such as date and size would be displayed next to the blank filename. I could see the files in MC and the invalid characters were obvious there. Quote Link to comment
wishie Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 I will update this post with the solution when I get home this evening. Quote Link to comment
