Not updating Date-Time and unable to read from server

[Johannes Kehrer]

Hello,
I am on OpenSuse Tumbleweed. For some time smb4k doesn't update the date-time of the files that are uploaded to the smb-server.
Additionally when I try to copy a file from the server there is the error message: "file cannot be read", although it can be seen in the file manager.
Attached are screenshots from the settings.
Thanks,
Johannes

Thank you for reporting your issue. Unfortunately, I do not completely understand what the first problem is? Could you please elaborate on that a bit?

The second issue sounds like a corrupted file system on the server. Can you copy the files by other means?

My first problem is:
1. File "Test1.txt" with date 2022-01-01 is stored on the server.
2. I copy the file "Test1.txt" with date 2022-12-22 on the server.
3. The date of file "Test1.txt" on the server is still 2022-01-01

Once i had problems with smb4k and I changed something in the settings. Although I tried to go back to default, it seems something is still wrong.

Therefore I added the screenshots of the configuration dialog...

What is the name of the configuration file? Can I delete it and start from scratch?

Thanks
Johannes

The configuration file is located under ~/.config/smb4krc. Deleting it will indeed reset everything. However, resetting the configuration back to default in the configuration dialog should do the same thing...

Hi,
in the meantime I have found out, that the cause is most probably the SMB Server (Fritzbox), quite common here in Germany. You can find many discussions on the internet, e.g.Fritzbox.
Thay suggest to include "cache=none,noserverino,nobrl,noperm ". How to include cache= none, that I have found out (cache mode). However to include the rest of the options I would have use additional options on mount dialog.
Unfortumately the dialog for entereing the "additional option" does not open upon clicking "edit".
Can you tell me, how to enter those options in the config-file?

thanks.

PS: I don't know if the names of the menu/options is correct, because I use the gemrna language and I have them translated.

This is actually a bug. Thanks for reporting this issue. I fixed it right away. It will be includes in Smb4K 3.1.7.

For the time being, you can add the following line to the config file ~/.config/smb4krc in the [Mounting] section :

[Mounting]
...
CustomCIFSOptions=noserverino,nobrl,noperm 
...

If that does not work or you face issues, please let me know.
