Vfs cache failed to transfer file from cache to remote permission denied

What is the problem you are having with rclone?

I'm experiencing a very odd behavior on upload new subtitles ( as far as I can tel, only .srt files ) from bazarr, I have a very large library, bazarr started to replace a few subtitles a few days ago, the files go to cache and then the error appears on the log:
'''

at first I believed that it was a problem with permission on the mount, all the services are running on the system account, I even added -o flag with permission to everyone and the error persist, and oddly enough, sonarr and radarr are running the same as bazarr and they show no errors on uploading their files to the union remote.
I've tried with the latest rclone stable and also the latest beta, the error is the same.
a couple of days ago I had a few problems with "error 403 download quota for this files was exceed" and it was because of an error on bazarr setup and my mount settings, so I've stopped bazarr service for a few days, after I've got that problem sorted, I've started bazarr again and this problem surfaced.
I am able to write files to the union mount normally, series and movies are uploading just fine...
everything seams to be fine, except with the subtitles :frowning:
my basic setup is a union mount of Google and a local foder,all the apps are using the mount as path ( plex, sonarr, radar and etc ) and I use a script to upload from the local folder to google off normal use hours...

thanks for any assitance :wink:

What is your rclone version (output from rclone version)

rclone v1.53.2

  • os/arch: windows/amd64
  • go version: go1.15.2

Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)

Windows 10, X64 , version 2004

Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)

Google Drive, not shared drive or team drive, not sure if it matters...

The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp)

mount UNION: U: --log-level INFO --volname "UNION MOUNT" --no-checksum --no-modtime --cache-dir C:\Cache --dir-cache-time 72h --drive-chunk-size 64M --vfs-read-chunk-size 32M --vfs-read-chunk-size-limit 512M --buffer-size 100M --rc --rc-user=xxx --rc-pass=xxx --rc-addr=10.0.0.20:5572 --rc-serve --rc-web-gui --fast-list --log-file C:\rclone\RClone_Union.txt --config "C:\Users\Jethro\.config\rclone\rclone.conf" --vfs-cache-mode writes -o --UserName=EVERYONE

I've just tested an manual upload using this command to move from cache to the remote:
'''

'''
it worked as it was supposed to, all the *.srt files were upload to the remote...

Well... Now it got really interesting... or, as we say here in Brazil, suck on this mango !
I've created a new remote, just for bazarr, with the same settings as the original remote,
and also I've created new credentials on Google API Console for this new bazarr remote.

here is the new rclone config:
'''

Edited an subtitle on bazarr app on the original remote, and as expected, the upload error is logged:

I've double checked the folders on the local disk, NTFS permissions are identical
now I have no clue what to try next...

The only thing that comes to mind is permissions problems in the VFS cache directory itself. Can you check that out in C:\Cache?

Thanks for the input Nick,
But I've checked the permission... They are exactly the same on both folders...
I even created a new folder with the same permission, the same error...
I've deleted the C:\cache folder and created again , set the permissions and the error is the same...

I've also created new credentials on the Google API Console for the original remote, same problem...

That "permission denied" error is most likely a local file system error.

So if it isn't the C:\Cache directory, could it be the C:\Media directory which is part of your union?

Well, now I believe you are on to something...
the file is on the C:\Cache folder, as expected.
and not on the C:\Media folder, with is the folder writable by the union mount.
I've created a new local folder for the union and set the permission according, same error...
during this processes , I've tried to copy the .srt in question from the C:\Cache folder to U:\Movies\FHD\Assault on Wall Street (2013) And I've got an error ! I cannot replace a file on that folder, in fact, I cannot do anything in this specific folder...

I'm working on the assumption that the flag I use on the mount "-o --UserName=EVERYONE" will set full control on the mount for all folders and files, but now I'm starting to believe that there is an issue here... I'll do more testing and report back.

again, thanks for the input on this issue Nick.

hi,

-o --UserName=EVERYONE

in windows, everyone is a group, not a user.
in this snippet, i added the group everyone to the permissions.
if you look closely at the icons, you can see the difference between a user and a group

image

if you run rclone as system user, then all processs can see it.

another option is to mount to a folder, not a drive letter, which is what i do.
you might find that works around some windows permissions problems.
rclone.exe mount wasabicrypt01: b:\mount\rclone\wasabicrypt01

Thanks for the tip,
I do mount using the system account, using NSSM to install and manage the service.
I will test as a folder mount, but I don't like this as a solution... this is a production environment :wink:
i don't like to have to change the paths for plex, sonarr, radarr and etc...

not sure what you mean about production environment and using a folder mount?

Sorry, I mean that this is an already setup and in use server... To have to change the root path on plex and all other applications I think it will be allot of work... All of then are using U:\Movies or U:\Series...
I will test the folder mount that you mention to test if the same problem still remain.
although, I already have another mount ( for bazarr ) with the same settings and not the same problem...

Just tested the folder mount with basically the same command line:
'''

what is really bugging me is that the bazarr mount, on V: does not show the same problem...

rclone.exe mount BAZARR_UNION: V: --log-level INFO --stats-log-level NOTICE --no-checksum --no-modtime --cache-dir C:\Bazarr_cache --dir-cache-time 48h --drive-chunk-size 64M --vfs-read-chunk-size 16M --vfs-read-chunk-size-limit 2G --vfs-cache-mode writes --buffer-size 256M --poll-interval 15s --fast-list --volname "BAZARR UNION MOUNT" --rc --rc-user=xxx --rc-pass=xxx --rc-addr=10.0.0.20:5573 --rc-serve --rc-enable-metrics --rc-web-gui --rc-web-gui-update --log-file C:\rclone\RClone_Bazarr_Union.txt --config "C:\Users\Jethro.config\rclone\rclone.conf" -o --UserName=EVERYONE
'''

--fast-list does does nothing on a mount

Sorry for the long pause on the topic, I was on holiday :wink:
Thanks for the tip on the --fast-list :wink:

I've decided to go back a few months on my setup ( when I was sure it was all working properly ) and guess what, it solved my problem... I believe that the rclone version is the main issue, and, what I was trying to achieve was a little off from where I've started... Let me explain the results

RClone that i'm using now:
rclone v1.51.0

  • os/arch: windows/amd64
  • go version: go1.13.7

Command to mount:
'''
mount UNIONGD: U: --log-level INFO --stats-log-level NOTICE --no-checksum --no-modtime --dir-cache-time 96h --timeout 1h --vfs-read-chunk-size 32M --vfs-read-chunk-size-limit 2G --vfs-cache-mode writes --buffer-size 256M --poll-interval 0 --volname "UNION MOUNT" --rc --rc-user=xxx --rc-pass=xxx --rc-addr=xxx:5572 --rc-serve --rc-web-gui --rc-web-gui-no-open-browser --rc-web-gui-update --log-file C:\rclone\Rclone_Union.txt --config "C:\Users\Jethro.config\rclone\rclone.conf" -o --UserName=EVERYONE
'''

Rclone config:
'''
[UNIONGD]
type = union
remotes = UNIONREMOTE:Media R:\Mount
'''

So, now when I write a file to the mount the file goes to R:\Mount ( local disk )
during the night a script uploads all the files to Google.

thank you all for the help on this.

so with that exact setup and config file that works, with v1.51.0,
rclone v1.53.3 will not work without error?

Using rclone v1.53.3 and the exact same setup the error on the .srt files still happens, and the mount does not work as expected, when I write to the mount the file goes to cache ( not the last remote on the mount ) and uploads to google immediately after the file finishes writing on the cache folder...

if true, then this is looking like some kind of bug.

can you post?

  • post that config file that works does not work with v1.53.3 and does work with v1.51.0
  • a debug log using v1.53.3 that shows the bug
  • a debug log using v.1.51.0 that show the same operation without the bug

Well, I did post all that info on my first post...
the configs, the debug logs...
to get all that again, it will take some time... as I said before, this is production... It will impact a few users...
I'll check back asap.

well, in the latest post, you have
mount UNIONGD:
before that you had
mount BAZARR_UNION:
and before that you had
mount UNION:

very strange that v1.53.3 would behave in a different manner from the exact same command and configs, as compared to v1.51.0

yes, I did change mount names, that's because I was testing several options at the same time...
but you find no more changes...
not to worry, I will provide the info as requested...
