Re: [Flickrfs-users] Flickfs

Hi Kai

TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'NoneType' objects

This is a bug, which I  cudn't/haven't fixed yet. As you noticed, the photos
do get uploaded, but they're not added to the sets. Annoying!


I just tried killing it and restarting it. More obscure messages:

perry$ python flickrfs/flickrfs.py /home/hendry/f
Authorizing with flickr...
Authorization complete.
fusermount: failed to access mountpoint /home/hendry/f: Permission denied
fuse: reading device: Bad file descriptor
perry$ ls -al f
ls: f: Transport endpoint is not connected

This is a problem with fuse, and not flickrfs. When you killed the process,
fuse module was still being used, and hence generated errors. The way arnd
is to use fusermount which shd automatically unmount flickrfs. This shd
work, as the previous bug doesn't hang the software. Though it shows errors,
its still handled by flickrfs internally.
If you have to kill flickrfs, even then you can use fusermount, to decrease
the use count of fuse. You can proceed then use 'rmmod fuse', followed by
'modprobe fuse'.
A "bad file descriptor" message is generally occured by these causes
1. no read/write permission in /dev/fuse.
2. fuse not added as module to kernel (use modprobe)

The easy way to check for these to be okay is to follow these commands and
not get an error:

$ sudo modprobe fuse

$ sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/fusermount

$ sudo chmod u+s /usr/bin/fusermount

$ sudo chmod 666 /dev/fuse

flickrfs shd mount okay if these were fine.

P.S. Ccing to flickrfs-users.
