Bug 223239 – net-fs/curlftpfs-0.9.1 fails on large file uploads

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Jonathan Lombardi 2008-05-22 17:06:59 UTC]

When uploading large files using curlftpfs-0.9.1, the upload fails with "Permission denied" error.

This error was previously noted in curlftpfs-0.9 by the Novell/SuSE team ( https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=281052 ) and eventually patched. See link for further details 0.9 patch.

This error may be related to bug#208168 in gentoo bugzilla.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge curlftpfs (you will need FUSE support in your kernel)
2. mkdir /mnt/testpoint
3. curlftpfs ftp://user:[e-mail]/ /mnt/testpoint
4. cp largefile.1.dar /mnt/testpoint

where "largefile.1.dar" is > 500MB

Actual Results:  
Error opening /mnt/testpoint/largefile.1.dar : Permission denied


Expected Results:  
The copy operation should succeed.

ebuild for patch

Add this ebuild to your portage overlay to test the patch. Kludgy, but it works.

 try to emerge this ebuild but when I do:
ebuild /usr/local/portage/net-fs/curlftpfs/curlftpfs-0.9.1.ebuild digest
