We have verified this bug in our environment. I experience this same bug with both 7.1 and 7.2 and all their associated updates. This is partly an IRIX NFS problem. Try upgarding IRIX to 6.5.14. We're already running IRIX 6.5.14m. Is this bug being looked at? It doesn't appear that anyone from Red Hat has acknowledged it. It's fairly major for us as we have many older SGIs serving disk space to our linux machines. It has been suggested that this is a tcsh bug; that tcsh needs to be rebuilt with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 Based on that suggestion, I am reassigning this bug report to tcsh. can you folks please try: ftp://people.redhat.com/pbrown/tcsh-6.10-6test.i386.rpm and report if it fixes your problems? The new version of tcsh seems to work in the two cases I was having problems. How soon until this patch is official? Thanks... This appears to work in our environment as well, please merge the changes into your production tree as soon as you can. Thanks, Rob. The patched tcsh solves the problem between 2.4.9-31smp kernel and IRIX6.5.12f in CLI. However it does not solve the related problem described in bug 54941. NFS mounted volumes on IRIX6.5 are still invisible from VMware 3.1 running over 2.4.9-31smp kernel. Kernel 2.4.3-12 does not exhibit this problem. Is there any probability, that this problem, that has been around for quite a while now, will ever be solved? We have a considerable number of machines that must be kept at 2.4.3-12 level solely because of this bug. What's happening with this bug? The version of tcsh in 7.3 has the same version number 6.10-6 as the test rpm but doesn't fix the bug. So even though you have a fix, it hasn't been pushed out yet. There must be other issues? We had this problem and adding the 32bitclients flag to /etc/exports on the IRIX box fixed it. For the archives, I recently ran into this bug(?) after an upgrade on the IRIX NFS server to 6.5.22 . Here is a typical error. % tcsh % cp v_otg0012180602.dat_control ../../etaplot cp: writing `../../etaplot/v_otg0012180602.dat_control': Permission denied % bash $ cp v_otg0012180602.dat_control ../../etaplot $ exit very sparatic behavior with tcsh (6.12-4 rh9) and none with bash while inside of the NFS mounted directories (-32bitclients flag on) I rolled by own from tcsh.org and it seems to have fixed the error... *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 73877 *** Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated. |
