Inaccessible Home

Postby borsa » Tue Oct 30, 2012 18:16

Good evening to all,

Saddened for my English but me serves me as a translation software.
I installed(settled) Sabayon 10 and E17 with no problem at all particular. But by moment I cannot reach my file / home, I have the following message:
Failure in the opening of the directory " xxxxxx ".
Error during the obtaining of the information of the file " / home / xxxxx/.gvfs ": final Knot of transport is not connected.


I tried to delete(eliminate) this file via root but I have an error message which says to me that the record(disk) is inaccessible.
What's to be done?

Beforehand merci
borsa

I think this is a GNOME VFS bug, as searching the Web show that it occurs in several distributions and desktop environments that use GNOME Virtual File System. I mentioned the problem in a recent blog post:

Fitzcarraldo wrote:Thunar was taking a very long time to open the first time I launched it after each reboot, and was also launching twice. To stop this happening I edited the file /usr/share/gvfs/mounts/network.mount and changed AutoMount=false.

Furthermore, the following message sometimes appears in a pop-up window when launching Thunar:

Failed to open directory “fitzcarraldo”.
Error when getting information for file ‘/home/fitzcarraldo/.gvfs’: Transport endpoint is not connected.

Searching the Web indicated the following command might fix it:

Code: Select all
# umount /home/fitzcarraldo/.gvfs

It seems to have helped, but the message does still appear sometimes.
