February 1, 20242 yr Hi i have some issues I guess it's rightly related; I get access from Windows and the problem is that I can't overwrite some files. I have checked, and the owner is nobody, and there are 777 rights on the files. So I have no idea what is happening there. Also, I get some times that the files I copy to the share have 0 bytes, so I am very confused about what is happening there. thanks for the support
February 2, 20242 yr Community Expert Are you trying to copy or move from disk to user share or from user share to disk? You must never do that. Zero byte files are a symptom of that. Linux doesn't know that a user share path and a disk path might be a path to the same file, so it will let you try to use the same file as both source and destination for the copy or move, resulting on overwriting what it is trying to read. So the file is recreated with nothing in it, then nothing gets written in it since there was nothing to read from the empty file just created.
February 2, 20242 yr Community Expert If working with files directly on the server, I recommend Dynamix File Manager plugin. It avoids that problem.

No Moving from one disk to another disk is OK, moving from one user share to another user share is OK. Moving from a disk to a user share is not OK, moving from a user share to a disk is not OK.
