"File Access Denied" on movie copy

Featured Replies

Hi All,

 

New user setting up an unraid server.  A little background.

 

I once had a Windows Home Server (v1) some of the drives and files go back to that machine.

I moved the files and a couple drives over to a Win 7 box and was using Drive pool to combine all of my media. Since updated to Win 10. That computer is in my bedroom and I really don't want it on all the time, I liked having a "server" out of the way in another part of the house.

Built an unraid box running 6.3.0 RC9 I seem to be in good shape.

 

Copied my music over - no problem. (this is from one of the drives in the drive pool)

 

Started on movies - Problem! It looks like a windows permission problem but dang if I can find it....  A movie will spend the time transferring and at the last 1% it halts with "File Access Denied"  If I press "continue" it just sits there @ 99%.  Any other choices stops the transfer. A folder for the movie is created in the share but shows as empty. This is after watching the copy process....

 

Anybody else ever deal with this? I'm kind of lost. Thinking its on the windows end but looking at the permissions I don't why?

 

Suggestions on where I should be looking?

Have you tried it with a different file?

Have you tried it with a different file? > Yes

 

I had one movie copy fine last night & I have moved my music over.  I'll try some more this evening and see if more are affected.

Having you tried moving the file in your Win10 machine to the root folder (i.e. "\") and move from there to unRAID?

Potentially something might be using the file while copying and/or the full path + file name is too long.

I also vaguely remember having issues when there bad sectors on drive so double check that too.

UPDATE:

 

Ok I have narrowed this down.

 

Before I go any further, let me mention that my Windows home server v1 crashed because of a failing hard drive. I didn't realize the drive was bad until setting up drive pool. So I am unsure if the files that I am having issues with originated on the Windows Home server or not.

 

I have transferred all my stuff and found this problem only apply's to 7 movies! Way better than I thought at first. It just happened that first movies I picked were affected.

 

I compared the permissions on the "good" and "bad" files. The ones that transferred fine have black check marks under permissions. The ones that wont copy have grey check marks. I have found that "grey" means the permissions are inherited. Still fishing as to how to make that not so.....

 

testdasi - I copied movies from the drive to my desktop, then tried to the unraid box. Same thing.
