Re: 1.7.8: files exist but can not be read


Hi,

here the script file.sh and its output results.txt,
pasted in the mail, including the output of the ntqueryfile
program. I ran ntqueryfile both on a netapp file and on a local file.

hope this helps

So it appears that you *can* read the files after all, but the stat function returns a file size of 0, right? So all tools which test the file size before opening a file will fail.

The question now is, why does it return 0.  What has changed in Cygwin
is that a core function now uses the FileNetworkOpenInformation class to
fetch file information.  Maybe that's not quite correctly implemented on
Netapps?

Can you please give the attached testcase a try?  Link it against ntdll
and use the DOS path to the file as parameter, like this:

   $ gcc -g -o ntqueryfile ntqueryfile.c -lntdll
   $ ./ntqueryfile \\\\nas01\\g_zon_software\\cygwin17\\bug.txt

Please paste the output into your reply.


Thanks, Corinna
