yum/rpm says: "error: failed to stat /home/tbl/.gvfs: Permission denied"
Last modified: 2008-04-02 09:30:22 EDT
Description of problem: Running either rpm or yum, I now get: error: failed to stat /home/tbl/.gvfs: Permission denied Doesn't appear to hinder, however. [tbl@localhost ~]$ ls -ld .gvfs dr-x------ 2 tbl tbl 0 2008-03-02 09:15 .gvfs [tbl@localhost ~]$ [tbl@localhost ~]$ getfacl .gvfs # file: .gvfs # owner: tbl # group: tbl user::r-x group::--- other::--- [tbl@localhost ~]$ Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gvfs-0.1.8-1.fc9.i386 How reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
I should mention that I get this after I "su -", and run rpm or yum as root.
I have a similar problem, but slightly different behaviour: ellson@ontap:~> ls -ld .gvfs ls: cannot access .gvfs: Transport endpoint is not connected ellson@ontap:~> getfacl .gvfs getfacl: .gvfs: Transport endpoint is not connected root@ontap:ellson# ls -ld .gvfs ls: cannot access .gvfs: Permission denied root@ontap:ellson# getfacl .gvfs getfacl: .gvfs: Permission denied
Repro on my rawhide system, some notes: - repro with gvfs-0.1.10-1.fc9.i386 - caused by gvfs-fuse-daemon (/usr/libexec//gvfs-fuse-daemon /home/tbzatek/.gvfs) - independent of filesystem the homedir is on [tbzatek@vmware124 ~]$ ls -ld .gvfs dr-x------ 2 tbzatek tbzatek 0 2008-03-04 17:39 .gvfs [tbzatek@vmware124 ~]$ getfacl .gvfs # file: .gvfs # owner: tbzatek # group: tbzatek user::r-x group::--- other::--- Another user or root see malformed filesystem record, probably due to the fact the mounted fuse filesystem is running privately only for the particular user. [root@vmware124 tbzatek]# ls -al | grep gvfs ls: cannot access .gvfs: Permission denied d????????? ? ? ? ? ? .gvfs This is causing yum error messages like error: failed to stat /mnt/disk2/home/test/.gvfs: Permission denied and system-wide utilities: [root@vmware124 tbzatek]# lsof lsof: WARNING: can't stat() fuse.gvfs-fuse-daemon file system /home/tbzatek/.gvfs Output information may be incomplete.
Linked to gvfs upstream bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=520403
These are really not bugs of gvfs or fuse, but bugs of the tools which can't handle fuse mounts not being traversable.
Moving to the right component.
Dupe of bug 432907 but lets track separately as that's for F8. In any case, fixed upstream already and getting it to Fedora is just a matter of me getting around to release rpm 4.4.2.3 final...
Fixed in rawhide.
