Hi;
I am using a daily refreshed Cygwin64 on WIndows 7 Enterprise.
When I mount fairly large NetApp volumes and perform a
du -sh path
or
find path etc
or
rm -rf path
where path is involved in the mount. like /cygdrive/y/ as mentioned below;
(those are the three that I remember, all apps recursive descend a
directory tree);
I'll frequently get the following error.
du -sh /cygdrive/y/Some_Large_Directory
du: fts_read failed:
/cygdrive/y/Some_Large_Directory/dir/dir/dir/file: No such file or
directory
So, what is the cause of this and what is the remedy or workaround?
So far I have no choice but to fall back to the dos window and dos
commands or the windows file explorer where I would much rather be
using Cygwin.
Thanks,
Ken Wolcott
