Could not move "foldername" - collecting files for copying

[headaches420]

Im not 100% sure where to put this

Im running the latest linux mint and im trying to move files from external hard drive to synology Ds918+
below is the picture of the problem


It seems to happen when i select a whole bunch of photos to move
when i do like 5 or so folders i dont have an issue

That is peculiar. What is the response when you try to move files via the terminal?

Code: Select all

mv air* path/to/synology_drive

Until this is fixed you might want to try copying and deleting, instead of moving.

How are you accessing the synology?

[headaches420]

with Double commander

I meant how are you mounting it, with smb or a cifs mount via fstab?

This is an smb mount:

note the address smb://diskstation.local/.

This is a cifs mount via fstab (a file read by the system on boot, it mounts whatever is in it):

I have the synology mounting at /media/synology via an entry in fstab:

Code: Select all

//diskstation.local/home/	/media/synology	cifs	credentials=/etc/samba/credentials,uid=1000,gid=1000,nofail	0	0

It is showing the contents of the folder home on the synology for the user defined in the credentials file.

You can replace hostname.local with the IP address, e.g. 192.168.0.110.

why do i have to make an entry?

how come it doesnt work out of the box?

You don't, I don't use double commander, happy with the default file manager, I suspect it is using an SMB mount.

You are using a windows application ported to linux.
