OpenSUSE Network :: NFS Stale File Handle
Jan 20, 2011
I currently have a home network setup so that my main machine shares it's external hard-drive via NFS. This has been working perfectly for months, however I just got a new laptop, installed openSuse 11.3 x64 and set everything up. Now there is two folders on the external network mount that won't let me do anything and always just return Networking: Stale NFS File Handle. The system still works fine under my old openSUSE 11.2 x86 laptop. I have tried unmounting the drive from the laptop, restarting the NFS client, and restarting the NFS server on the main machine. None of these have made a difference.
It is only these two folders that are effected. Everything else works just fine.

I did a backup of the ssd on my eeepc using the following command from a Linux Mint on a USB key:
dd if=/dev/sda1 of=/media/disk/eeepc_save/SYSTEM/system.bck
(/media/disk in an external USB disk)
I deleted the ext2 partition using GPartEd on live USB key and created it back. I rebooted Linux Mint and restored the filesystem using the opposite command :
dd if=/media/disk/eeepc_save/SYSTEM/system.bck of=/dev/sda1
I mounted /dev/sda1 and when I "ls" the root directory, I get several "NFS stale file handle" messages concerning directories (/dev and other). I tried "e2fsck -y", had a bundle of corrections that resulted in the deletion of the directories. I don't use NFS. I did the same for the user filesystem and had no problem (it's an ext3 partition). The two filesystems are the ones that came with the original Xandros installed on my eeepc and that were mounted with union-fs.

I've got something showing up in my /mnt directory that I can't figure out how to get rid of. If I try to delete it, I get, "ERROR: Stale NFS file handle". I've tried googling it, but the only solution I can find is "remount and then unmount your NFS server". The trouble is that I don't have any NFS servers - it was a mountpoint for a squashfs file. Trying to remount the squashfile just gives the same error message. My best guess for how it was created is that maybe the file was deleted while mounted. Surely there is a way I can get rid of it? It stuffs up my system by e.g. preventing find from working. I'm running Puppy Linux 4.1.1, although I suspect that is irrelevant.

When using rsync to copy from one NFS mounted filesystem to another mounted NFS, rsync displays "stale NFS file handle" while attempting to issue a chmod after each file is copied. The files appear to be written successfully but the owner and group show up as "99." The source file system is mount USB ext3 drive and the target is a Buffalo TeraStation TS-XL/R5.

I have a 20TB filesystem, xfs formatted. The filesystem has been mounted with the inode64 option, and I now need to NFS export it. NFS doesn't like the inode64 option at all. The NFS clients cannot access any of the directories with inode numbers exceeding the 32bit limit. They get the "Stale NFS file handle" message. I have tried to attach the filesystem to a RHEL5.3 system, and after turning on the no_subtree_check option in /etc/exports on the server, it all works fine. No changes were needed on the clients.
The problem is that I need to get this to work on a RHEL4.4 system. Unfortunately I cannot do any test on that system yet, I then did a quick test on a RHEL4.3 system... and it didn't work. Even using the no_subtree_check option was on any help. I am afraid that this will not work on the RHEL4.4 system either. How to get the inode64 xfs filesystem NFS exported on a 2.6.9 kernel?

I've got a problem while accessing the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-wlan0 file, CLI's throwing: "Stale File Handle" - there's no access to this file. Problem is the same regardless wlan0 interface is up or down.

I get this error which means I cant visit websites. I cant rm, cp, mv, vi, ... this file. How do I regain the ability to browse the internet? Is there a way I can create a /etc/resolv.conf2 and have my system use that instead?

A FC10 server hung and had to be power-cycled. I suspect it hung because of an nfs mount timeout.
Now it does not boot. The error is libc.so.6 not found. Kernel panic. Attempting to kill init.
Booting under rescue:
ls: cannot access libc-2.8.so: Stale NFS file handle
Is there a way to reboot to a clean state? There must be some NFS cache file.
I also tried to cp rescueCD:/lib64/libc-2.8.so to the old lib64 dir, but get the same "Stale NFS file handle" message.

When I run lilo (/sbin/lilo), it messes up my /boot partition. Next time I try to mount it after running lilo, I get an error: "mount: Stale NFS file handle" (I define -t ext2). My /boot partition is ext2, mounted locally, and not nfs. Then I do fsck /dev/sda1, and I get several: Free blocks count wrong for group #0 (7665, counted=5063). Fix<y>? I say yes to all and it works normally afterwards. This happens only after I run lilo. Lilo is installed in MBR.
Here is relevant configuration:
Code:
root@darwin:/home/cabrilo# cat /etc/lilo.conf
append=" vt.default_utf8=0"
boot = /dev/sda
bitmap = /boot/slack.bmp
bmp-colors = 255,0,255,0,255,0
bmp-table = 60,6,1,16
bmp-timer = 65,27,0,255
prompt
timeout = 30
change-rules
reset
vga = normal
image = /boot/vmlinuz
root = /dev/sda3
label = Linux
read-only
This is my partition table:
Code:
root@darwin:/home/cabrilo# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 160.0 GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

I was following the relatively simple instructions here for setting up a LAMP system. After having installed Apache2-related applications, I ran
# a2enmod expires
# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
That worked fine. Then, a little later, after having set up a virtual host for my project website, and after installing PHP, MySQL and setting up a Mail Server with Exim, I rebooted and started getting errors when trying to start Apache:
Starting web server: apache2apache2: Syntax error on line 185 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/expires.load: Stale NFS file handle
Now it seems as if there is nothing I can do with that file:
# rm -f /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/expires.load
rm: cannot remove '/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/expires.load': Stale NFS file handle
# cd /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/
[code]....
Is there anything I can do to refresh the NFS index so that it finds or removes this file? I'd be happy to just get rid of it. At the moment, I can't start Apache or anything because of it.

I've not found how to configure more than one ip address with network manager.Nor with kde nor with plasmoid network manager.I need several virtual ip addresses for eth0 when the "default" of eth0 is connected i.e. "Connected to Auto eth0" should initialize the virtual interfaces.I have not found no even how to configure the ip address.I think this will be used from ifup config in yast or not?There I have the virtual interfaces but they are not taken from network manager.And last but no least: Is it possible that when using network manager the eth0 is enabled even no user has logged in?

When logging in to a remote server and starting Nautilus, I then want to add and bookmark an ssh connection to another remote server. I get an EM 'cannot find the location' and when going to 'network locations' EM 'Nautilus cannot handle network locations'. I 've been googling for a few hours, and found a lot of threads that point to gvfs, to samba and to rebooting and reinstalling. Rebooting I did, reinstalling is not possible,the gvfs thing is very unclear. There was an Em on the command line when starting Nautilus: "share extensions disabled", I got rid of that by uninstalling nautilus-share-extensions. Opensuse 11.2 fully updated, running as Kiwi-Ltsp server.

I WAS using opensuse 11.1 with gnome networkmanager and vpnc. I am NOW using opensuse 11.2 with gnome networkmanager and vpnc.When vpn concentrators are configured, they are configured with 'split horizons' (or not). If not, a default route is required from the client to pass ALL client traffic through the vpn connection. (when the connection is established, the vpn client replaces the default route on the client machine to point to the host site) If 'split horizons' is enabled, only the traffic bound for the host site is passed through the vpn connection.
What I have noticed, is since I installed 11.2, the vpn client is NOT enabling split horizon on connections that call for it. In stead, it is putting in a default gateway every time. This is a big problem, because for those sites that are configured for split horizon, doing this means that no Internet traffic will pass unless you manually adjust the route table.

I want to share my WiFi internet connection over LAN, so I'm trying to set up IP forwarding. An old tutorial tells me to go to Network Settings in YaST to do this, but that applet says that NetworkManager is now handling all of that stuff.How do I enable IP forwarding while NetworkManager handles my internet connections?

Has anyone else experienced issues with this option? Using the tweak tool from Malcolm's repo. If I set it, it works in the current session. But after logout, I can't login again. At login the desktop appears briefly then closes back to the login screen.

I have Puppy installed on an old laptop and one way or another I ended up with a file inside /usr/bin that has the Stale NFS file error. I've tried to look around for a way to fix it but all places I've looked have only been for the situation where it's on a drive you're able to unmount. At least I think they were. I certainly don't know what I'm doing well enough to know for sure. Obviously restarting the computer has been tried as well as attempting to unmount things, but I can't unmount the drive that is running the unmounting.

I'm trying to setup a small network between my old and new laptops to transfer my personal data. They are now linked with a crossover cable and they see each other.The old one has a dual-boot setup with WinXp and Ubuntu 9.10.The new one with Win7 and Ubuntu 9.10.I tried samba but it was very slow even using Windows in both computers: maximum transfer rates were about 1,5 Mib/sec.I tried SSH using ubuntu on both pcs and it is reliable and much faster, 5 Mib/sec. But I wanted more...I installed the NFS server on the old one and exported the NTFS partition where my data resides with sync and ro options.
I installed the NFS client on the new one and i'm able to mount the remote partition.Now, when I transfer my files I get very high speed, more than 10 Mib/sec but after a while I get a "Stale NFS file handler" error but I really didn't touch any file in the old pc and the connection is always up.Searching on the web I found that NFS had some troubles exporting NTFS partitions in the past but should be fully compatible with them since the last versions of ubuntu.

I'm new to php and need some pointers to worth while documentation 'cause I'm getting nowhere I want to make a simple html form that allows me to submit a csv file so that I can work on it.The problem seems to be that if the file is not in the root of the (web) application it won't work.The form doesn't seem to send the path with it so I am unable to (1) know where the file is, I just get the name of the file and (2) I couldn't access the file anyway as it's outside of the apache environment.Is there a way to up the file to memory? How would you do this

Two of them use wifi with the internet and the third is wired.I would like to share files between them all of them.When I go to dolphin/network there is nothing there and I don't know how to set it up.

I just installed suse on this computer, and am wanting to allow other computers to store files on it as a file server. I was reading the online manual and in the personal file preferences, it shows an option to enable 'share public files over network'. The problem is I don't see that option when I open up file preferences. All I see is an option to allow sharing using bluetooth, nothing about sharing over the network. When I look in the network I can see the computer running suse, but when I try to connect to it, it says 'unable to mount drive: connection refused by server.'

openSUSE 11.2 (i586)
VERSION = 11.2
on an IBM x3250
Problem is that after the screen comes up to chose the default version or failsafe, my monitor shows no input. If I delete the VGA 0x031 (i think that's the number) on the Options line in the screen where you chose the version, I get my command line interface.
Can I make the blank VGA options permanent?

I've been trying to install Opensuse 11.3 from the Kde live cd, but the installation hangs when I'm almost done. Right at the beginning the installation is interrupted right with text that among other things says:
Bug: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc90010b8000. After a while though, the installation picks up and continues by itself. I'm then able to complete the necessary steps and I reboot the system so that it can complete the installation.
After reboot there is a new text message that says that the bios does not support EEC memory or something to that effect and then continues with the installation. When it has completed 82% of the autoconfiguration the installation just stops and stays that way.
I've had no problem installing previous releases, from 10.2 up to 11.2, on the same machine.
I've checked md5 sum and also checked the media before proceeding with the installation.
Upon reboot after the first installation step, I also tried the failsafe mode but got the same result.

I ran fsck on one of my backup drives, one that is almost full, and I'm not quite sure if that drive is going bad or not.
It's running ext3 and has around 1.6TB used (2.0TB drive).
This is what the output was:
Code:
charles@thor:~$ sudo fsck -rV /dev/sdc1
fsck from util-linux-ng 2.16
[/sbin/fsck.ext3 (1) -- /dev/sdc1] fsck.ext3 -r /dev/sdc1
e2fsck 1.41.9 (22-Aug-2009)
I found some info about how ext3 defrags itself and that it cannot handle large files very well. Source.
Kinda makes me wonder how badly fragmented my 4TB partition is going to be. >.<

New Linux user here. I'm running 11.3 x64 gnome (runlevel3) on my headless home file server. I've mounted my RAID array onto /shared and have setup samba (through Yast) for file sharing. However I am having an issue when I transfer multiple small files over the network (i.e music) it will crash the box. I am unable to reach it through ping or SSH. It is also physically unresponsive where by connecting a keyboard or mouse to the system will not work.
Looking through /var/log/messages does not indicate any sort of issue. I've tried turning off unnecessary programs (rTorrent etc) to make sure it isn't overloading the connections however the box still crashes. Although transferring files locally from HDD to HDD does not crash the server.

I'm about to set up file server for client, both win and osx and later on web server as well.first think is that i have an old box packardbell with 2.4 gh amd processor 1 gb of ram it's an oldie one 2000 i guess i think that there shouldn't be problem to install it as i was running opensuse on it before and accept sound card everything was running normally. I'm newbie in linux world but as much as i can understand is that i will need samba to make it work with win based os but what about mac's os x? is samba for it and how to set it up ?
