Description Bram Nauta 2010-11-23 12:21:35 UTC
When mounting a GlusterFS volume in fstab at boot, this always fails due to fuse not being loaded at the time fstab wants to mount the GlusterFS volume.

fstab line:
/etc/glusterfs/glusterfs.vol    /dfs1   glusterfs       defaults,log-file=/var/log/glusterfs.log        0 0

/var/log/glusterfs.log shows:

GlusterFS does not modprobe fuse before mounting. Can you please modprobe fuse and then start GlusterFS?

Comment 2 Bram Nauta 2010-11-24 07:14:58 UTC
Modprobing FUSE doesn't work, modprobe says it can't find the module fuse. I am running GlusterFS inside a VPS and it seems that FUSE was compiled without a 'modprobable' module or something...I don't know that much about modules etc. so really can't figure out how this works. Modprobe says it can't find fuse, but mounting the GlusterFS volume manually does work. (mount also show the fusectrl mount, so FUSE does work)

On lack of feedback I close this bug.

If OP would happen to look back, we can reopen.
