Operating system and version: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS - Docker
nginx version: 1.20.2
PHP version: 8.0.25

The issue you are facing:

  • MergerFS setup:
    I have a MergerFS pool (/mnt/pool) consisting of two 4TB drives (/mnt/disk1 & /mnt/disk2) merging into one 8TB pool.
    In the pool there is a movie folder, whatever I place in it gets put in one of either drives (so basically each of the drives has the same root movie folder, but with different movies inside; end user sees everything merged in one movie folder).

    • fstab:
      • UUID=464c0ad0-c349-45f7-97fe-a2f3fe682855 /mnt/disk1 ext4 nofail 0 0
      • UUID=ca07062e-bdc4-4c83-8596-831b969930e9 /mnt/disk2 ext4 nofail 0 0
      • /mnt/disk* /mnt/pool fuse.mergerfs category.create=mspmfs,defaults,allow_other,use_ino,cache.files=partial,dropcacheonclose=true,nonempty 0 0

  • Nextcloud setup:
    Running on LinuxServer’s docker image (latest).

    • 2 volume mappings:
      • /home/xxxxx/Docker/nextcloud:/config
      • /mnt/pool/Nextcloud:/data
    • I am using the app “Group folders (13.1.0)” to access the movie folder:
      • /mnt/pool/Nextcloud/__groupfolders/5/movies

Issue is that if i try deleting/moving a file/folder that is located in disk2, it doesn’t work;
Meanwhile files/folders on disk1 can be normally deleted/moved.
(Note that from NC they all sit in the same folder, I had to go look myself outside of the pool to troubleshoot).

Is this the first time you’ve seen this error?
Yes since adding a second drive.
