Judging by other posts, everybody seems to have NFS shares working, but I can't seem to get there.
I have set up an NFS share on my old WHS 2011 box; I have tested from a Win10 client that I can mount/access the NFS share correctly.
When I try to set up an NFS share in Kodi, here's what happens...
_ Add video source > Browse > Network File System (NFS)
_ server IP address (192.168.1.66) shows up
_ when "clicking" on IP address, share name ("/Movies") shows up
_ when "clicking" on share name, nothing happens
If I manually type in the NFS URL (nfs://192.168.1.66/Movies), I get an error msg: "Unable to connect: The connection to the network location couldn't be established. This could be due to the network not being connected. Would you like to add it anyway?"
But the network is clearly connected, otherwise IP address and share name wouldn't show (by the way: tried both wired and wireless)
I have enabled Kodi debug logging, and the relevant errors seem to be...
ERROR: Failed to open(//) opendir call failed with "NFS: READDIRPLUS of / failed with NFS3ERR_ACCESS(-13)"
ERROR: XFILE::CDirectory::GetDirectory - Error getting nfs://192.168.1.66/Movies
Sorry, I can't attach the full debug log, I need an NFS share to copy it onto :-(
I have enable event logging for all event types on the WHS NFS server (mount & unmount, lock & unlock, read & write, create & delete).
If I access the NFS share from my Win10 client, events show up in the Event Log as expected.
If I try to access the share from Xbox/Kodi, not a single event comes through!
Not sure if this is relevant, but the instructions I followed for setting up NFS on WHS 2011 were very specific about the correct NFS URL syntax.
It claims it should be nfs://192.168.1.66:/Movies (take note of the additional “:”).
However, when trying to enter a URL with an extra ":", Kodi just seems to disregard/delete that.
Any suggestions?
Thx
