I think the problem with symbolic links in fstab is now solved by always canonicalizing the mountpoint's file name.

The fix is in the CVS sources branch MAIN and branch rel-1-4-6.

Hello,

I am sorry but I finally find the "bug". It was on my side. On the Ubuntu box, the home directories of the users are found through a symbolic link:

Nominal home for user: /users/mygroup/myuser
Real home for user: /home/mygroup/myuser

$ ls -d /home /users
drwxr-xr-x 5 root root 4096 Oct  8 09:00 /home
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    5 Oct  7 15:28 /users -> /home

..so mount.davfs didn't find the mount point (/users/...) into the mtab entriues /home/...

Sorry for the nuisance, you can close request.

... and many thanks for writing this code!

Cheers,

 Evili

Hi,

I am trying to mount a WebDAV folder with davfs2 on a fresh Ubuntu 12.04 PC with the needed configuration for davfs2 (user added to davfs2 group, etc.)

I can mount the WebDAV directory:

$ mount -v /home/myuser/Dav


 but after some seconds (usuallu the value of delay_upload) it issues an error:

"Transport endpoint is not connected"

The /etc/fstab line is:

https://my.server.addre.ss/files/myuser /home/myuser/Dav davfs defaults,rw,noauto,user,_netdev 0 0

I have seen this reported before but I have not found any solution. Both the /proc/mounts and /etc/mtab report correcly the mounted directory:

$ mount | grep davfs
https://my.server.addre.ss/files/myuser on /home/myuser/Dav type davfs (rw,nosuid,noexec,nodev,_netdev,user=myuser)

$ grep davfs /etc/mtab
https://my.server.addre.ss/files/myuser /home/myuser/Dav davfs rw,nosuid,noexec,nodev,_netdev,user=myuser 0 0

$ cat /proc/mounts | grep -i dav
https://my.server.addre.ss/files/myuser  /home/myuser/Dav fuse rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime,user_id=3134,group_id=100,allow_other,max_read=16384 0 0

The contents of the /etc/davfs2.conf are:

connect_timeout 17
delay_upload    23

debug kernel
debug config
debug locks
debug xml
debug cache

https://my.server.addre.ss/files
servercert MySERVER-CA.crt


The system in an Ubuntu 12.04 LTS amd64 with a 3.2.0-54-generic kernel.

The same configuration with the same URL, user, server, etc works fine in Fedora 19.

It seems to be some incompatibility between the kernel, fuse, and the davfs daemon.

Please could you tell me how to correct this error?

TIA.
