Nope, it's just a flat text config file. You need to tell the server to reload it. There are 2 ways to do it from the command line: sudo /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server restart | any Debian based OS. sudo exportfs -ra | should work on any Linux NFS. Or if you have a Web GUI just stop and start the NFS server. - Memphiz - 2011-07-13 ha! ... thats really funny ... well - next problem i troubleshoot will have this question in it aswell ... will add a hint to the wiki - DaveNinja - 2011-07-13 quick question: on the ATV2 when I try and add my nfs ip/path i leave the port to the default (2049, i think it is). once i add the ip/path (eventhough I get an error that xbmc cant connect to the network drive), it shows up as: Code: nfs://1.2.3.4:2049/path/to/export - jlor - 2011-07-13 DaveNinja Wrote:quick question: Nope - most people don't add the path via the browse feature, so the port wont be part of the path. But it doesn't matter either way - the system defaults to that port Problem is on the serverside then. - Anth0 - 2011-07-15 I still have a problem with my NFS connection I think. ATV2 can connect to my NAS through NFS and I can see my folders, I created a movie library and I can play movies. But... each time I open XBMC, it tries to update my libraries (which is a good thing) but it keeps poping a dialog box saying "Unable to connect to remote server. Would you like to continue scanning?". If I say No it stops and then I'm able to do whatever I want. But if I say yes (because I want it to update my libraries) it'll keep poping this window up several times and eventually it'll either update the library or crash... Moreover this is a pain in the ass since it stops doing anything while I haven't say Yes or No to the dialog box so if I'm not in front of my TV to check on it my libraries will never be updated. Any ideas ? You'll find my log below. http://pastebin.com/bg931sfN - Cranial - 2011-07-15 There is still a problem with your NFS. Quote:ERROR: NFS: Failed to mount nfs share: RPC error: Mount failed with error MNT3ERR_NOENT(2) Operation not permitted(1) You're still getting permissions errors. Have you rebooted the NAS or restarted the NFS service since you had it working? Can you check your exports ("cat /etc/exports") and see if it's changed? - darkscout - 2011-07-15 Anth0 Wrote:But... each time I open XBMC, it tries to update my libraries (which is a good thing) but it keeps poping a dialog box saying "Unable to connect to remote server.

It's driving the rest of us crazy too. - Memphiz - 2011-07-15 1. there seems to be more then one nfs share in your setup - and at least one doesn't have the right permissions (so the nfs mount error log spamming happens) 2. the problem you described is a scraper problem as far is i remember and has nothing to do with nfs ... so basically "what darkscout said" But i thought the scraper things where fixed in the latest nightly? Maybe i'm miss informed there ... - ben33400 - 2011-07-18 ben33400 Wrote:And I can see folders with smb, why not nfs ? To be sure ... It is currently normal that: - I can see folders with SMB ? - I can't see folders with NFS ? I understood "yes" and just want to confirm. Thanks. - Anth0 - 2011-07-18 Cranial Wrote:There is still a problem with your NFS.NAS has been rebooted and the exports are good in /etc/exports. Memphiz Wrote:1. there seems to be more then one nfs share in your setup - and at least one doesn't have the right permissions (so the nfs mount error log spamming happens)Weird... I configured only one NFS share for /volume1/video. I have two folders within /volume1/video which are "TV" and "Movies". I created a first library for movies linked to the "Movies" folder and then I tried and created a second library for tv shows linked on the TV folder. But both libraries are linked on the same NFS share. Is this a problem? Memphiz Wrote:2. the problem you described is a scraper problem as far is i remember and has nothing to do with nfs ... so basically "what darkscout said"You must be right on this point. I'll do an apt-get update tonight when I'll be at home. - jlor - 2011-07-18 ben33400 Wrote:To be sure ... It is currently normal that: No, that's not normal. Long answer: Some NFS setups have the side-effect of not being able to see folders - however a fix is in the pipeline. No ETA yet. The problem of not being able to see folders are mostly present if the NFS server is *BSD or Solaris based. Although it can present itself on other platforms.. - ben33400 - 2011-07-18 jlor Wrote:The problem of not being able to see folders are mostly present if the NFS server is *BSD or Solaris based. My server is Mac OS X SL ... so BSD Based. So I have to wait for another release of XBMC. Thanks. - darkscout - 2011-07-18 You can't browse folders, but I believe it still scrapes fine. - ben33400 - 2011-07-18 maybe, but it is not a satisfying option to SMB yet. when scraping does not work, it is useful to have a easy folder browser ! I hope it will be corrected soon, because of the soon release of Lion, and its poor poor smb implementation (from what I have read). - jlor - 2011-07-18 I don't believe scraping will work because the NFS client can't read the files in sub-directories, so how should it scrape them? Anyway, I suppose you could grab the newest version of the nfslib from their git, compile it yourself and drop it in.. That might work, but I honestly wouldn't know where to start.. I have never done any real compiling on a Mac OSX platform. |
