OS X File Transfer Issue

Featured Replies

Hello,

 

I have just built my first unRAID NAS box. (Specs Below)

I am having a terribly time using SMB file transfer from my MacBook hard wired through a gig switch. Just about every time I drop a file into the server window It goes into the spinning beach ball on the Mac for about 30 seconds before it says preparing for transfer and It then fails and gives me this error code -36. (Screenshot Attached)

 

Has anyone had this trouble before? I have tried it on multiple computers with the same issue.

 

Specs:

MotherBoard: MSI Pro Series Intel B250 LGA 1151 DDR4

CPU: Intel Pentium Processor G4400 3.3 GHz

Memory: Crucial 8GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR4-2133 MT/s

PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G1

Cache: Sandisk 120GB SSD

Drives: 4x WD Red 2TB NAS HDD

Case: Rosewill RSV-4000

error -36.jpg

are both systems on the same network?

Yes they are. 

i have this issue but they are on 2 different network and my router does not let it write to the share.

 

how is your share setup?

ioErr = -36, /*I/O error (bummers)*/

 

Which version of OSX?

Is it the same file you tried from other computers?

What file type is it, What app created it?

What happens if you save it in an image file or zip it and save the zipped file to UnRaid?

Russ,

One computer is running Sierra and the other is El Capitan.

I have tried .jpg files and .mp4 files exported out of the adobe suite. 

 

I will try zipping it to see what it does. Interested to try out but won't work for me in practice.

 

how is the share setup? you said smb but is exported, or password protected or hidden?

It is SMB, Exported and logging in public/guest.

Would this be something not preclearing the drives would cause?

I would get the error 36 when using an osx vm on one unraid server while trying to send data to a share on another.

 

This was partly resolved when I was fixing another issue with virtual nic's in the vm by disabling smb signing:

 

 

This is on Sierra. You could try it. If it doesn't work, then turn it back on I guess.

jpg and mp4 files should not cause the problem...

I assume you are using user shares, have you tried dragging the file to a disc share?

One more thing, are you using a cache drive?

And is there enough space on the drive or for the share you are dragging it to?

Maybe an issue with the drive or network.

What is your minimum free space set at for your share?

Just tried this and no luck.

I am using user shares. I will try a disc share today.

Yes I have a 120gb SSD set to cache. 
I will have to check what the drive is set at. Though this happens from files that are 500kb to 3+gb. It hase let me transfer some at times which is what throughs me off.
