support

#1

Hello,

I have in use a nc 18.04 (intel i5) and the files of a external discstation from synology connected with samba.

If I call "sudo -u www-data php occ files:scan " the error message

mkdir failed on directory /var/run/samba/msg.lock: Permission denied

occured.

The /var/run/samba/ folder is root:root:

drwxr-xr-x  3 root root   60 Apr 30 06:08 .
drwxr-xr-x 34 root root 1160 Mai 10 14:42 ..
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root   60 Apr 30 06:08 upgrades
michael@nextcloud:/var/run/samba$

Must this www-data:www-data to work fine?

Regards
Michael

Do you have samba mounted by the OS or by Nextcloud?

#3

By Operating System

#4

For any file access not carried out inside Nextcloud itself, it will be done in the context of the user www-data. Make sure the www-data user can access the mounted share.

I have mounted my discstation folder my this:
sudo mount 192.168.178.188:/volume3/FC_Daten/daten /media/fc_daten

and this folder have www-data rights:
drwxrwx--- 1 www-data www-data 4282 Mai 10 19:05 fc_daten

But the error message is:
mkdir failed on directory /var/run/samba/msg.lock: Permission denied

and this folder have root:root

drwxr-xr-x  3 root root   60 Apr 30 06:08 .
drwxr-xr-x 34 root root 1160 Mai 10 14:42 ..
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root   60 Apr 30 06:08 upgrades
michael@nextcloud:/var/run/samba$

So my question is: Should I change the owner to www-data:www-data for this folder also?

I’m a little unclear on exactly what you’re trying to do. What is Nextcloud’s relation to /media/fc_daten ?

#7

/media/fc_daten is the document root from my nextcloud

#8

mkdir and /var/run/samba/msg.lock makes no sense on “occ files:scan”.
Sorry. No further Idea.

Please cut-and-paste command and error in one code-block. Thanks.

I have the same issue on my setup. Here is the output from my occ files:scan --all:

mkdir failed on directory /var/run/samba/msg.lock: Permission denied
Protocol negotiation failed: NT_STATUS_INVALID_NETWORK_RESPONSE

My nextcloud 18.0.4 runs in a proxmox lxc with the data dir mounted to /mnt/data. the fstab is as follows

//192.168.178.47/nextcloud/data   /mnt/data   cifs    rw,vers=3.0,credentials=/root/.smbcred,uid=www-data,gid=www-data,file_mode=0770,dir_mode=0770   0   0
