Description

Is not possible to browse .zfs directories with midnight commander if snapshots are hidden, if snapshots are visible MC works.

How to reproduce the problem:
1) cd /tank0/.zfs/snapshot/<snapdir>/
2) mc
MC shows the root directory.

can you try the current 'master', is the bug still reproducable?

Replying to angel_il:

I have the same bug with the version downloaded with git:
ssh@clover-nas /tmp/mc_test]$ bin/mc -V
GNU Midnight Commander 4.8.2-71-g5fe2f82
Built with GLib 2.28.8
Using the ncurses library

Data types: char: 8; int: 32; long: 64; void *: 64; size_t: 64; off_t: 64;

The same error happens with the latest PCBSD 9.0 and mc v. 4.8.2-71-g5fe2f82 or mc v. 4.7.5.5.

Bump. This bug still appears on FreeBSD 9.1-STABLE, with MC 4.8.8:

After mc is launched in a snapshot directory, you can see a red error, with the following message: "Cannot read directory contents".

Confirming that this still occurs with 10.3-RELEASE and MC 4.8.16.

Sorry, but I don't understand why issue with major priority stays unresolved over 3 years.

It's merely my speculation, but it might be MC uses system pwd command or same calls?

The .zfs subdirectories are not real directories, so pwd or /bin/pwd doesn't work for it, but pwd -L or /bin/pwd -L does:

# cd /tank/dir/.zfs/snapshot/2016-04-15_11.45.00--36h
# pwd
pwd: .: No such file or directory
# pwd -L
/tank/dir/.zfs/snapshot/2016-04-15_11.45.00--36h

Is it so hard to guess? Because there is no manpower to investigate it and come up with a fix.

Has been working well for me at least since 12.0-RELEASE and recent MC versions.

comment:7 Changed 2 months ago by zaytsev

  • Status changed from new to closed
  • Resolution set to invalid

Apparently got fixed by itself :)
