March 5, 201313 yr For the first time, the Mover did not move an MTS file of 1.93 GB. I ran it last night manually and this morning it moved all files except this one file. I tried to manually run it again and it completed without moving this file, the only file left on the cache drive. Anyone have any suggestions as to what is wrong and how can I fix the problem? I am running version 4.7. I currently have preclear running on a disk and so I do not want to reboot to ensure all open file handles are closed.
March 5, 201313 yr File is probably in use, is it something you torrented/etc? If so, probably seeding.
March 5, 201313 yr Author No torrent. It is just a home video that I copied from my camera. I don't know what could have an open handle to the file. I will probably reboot once preclear is completed to see if that resolves the problem. I have never had this happened with the mover.
March 5, 201313 yr Does the filename start with a . or a _ ? Mover will not move those files if I recall correctly.
March 5, 201313 yr Author Does the filename start with a . or a _ ? Mover will not move those files if I recall correctly. Normal filename starting with a "D". It does have a dash in the middle, but so does all the other home video files that got moved.
March 5, 201313 yr You can try running the following to see if the file is actually open: lsof | grep filename

SMBD seems to be what shares files to windows hosts (SMB) and SHFS seems to be what's converting the physical mounted disks into one large share, as proven here:- root@Tower:~# lsof | grep "Broke" smbd 777 nicholas 38r DIR 0,13 72 17179869251 /mnt/user/TV Shows/2 Broke Girls smbd 777 nicholas 39r DIR 0,13 248 17179869252 /mnt/user/TV Shows/2 Broke Girls/Season 1 smbd 777 nicholas 40r REG 0,13 2337877762 17179869253 /mnt/user/TV Shows/2 Broke Girls/Season 1/2 Broke Girls - S01E01 - Pilot.mkv shfs 7286 root 58r REG 9,2 2337877762 69 /mnt/disk2/TV Shows/2 Broke Girls/Season 1/2 Broke Girls - S01E01 - Pilot.mkv root@Tower:~# And me accessing it on windows:- I recommend trying to find which PC in your household is accessing it, if you can't just restart all windows PCs in the household, if you can't, there's probably some command to DC all SMB clients from the network. Oh, and, FYI, 2 Broke Girls is a terrible show, don't watch it, I'm just too lazy to delete it and it's first in alphabetical order.
March 5, 201313 yr Author I found the culprit and rebooted the media player device. Then manually started Mover and the file was successfully moved. This is the first time this has happened. I don't know why the media player would leave open file handles.
