df: `/media/cloudfiles': Transport endpoint is not connected about cloudfuse HOT 11 OPEN

the cloudfuse configuration has a cache setting, so that's likely causing the delay between servers seeing the files (or cloud files is caching it's output).

additionally, I received the Transport error multiple times when attempting to copy a >5gb file to the cloudfuse mount point. Turns out that cloud files only supports 5gb file segments, so if you want a larger filesize, you must segment the files for storage.

I am having the same problem ( Transport endpoint is not connected ) even with very low traffic (developement stage) and few files.
Is there a way to reconnect automatically ?

It seems it just disconnects after some inactivity. Does it ?

hi David,
no there does not seem to be any resolution on this, so i am using nfs mounts

@mandnZoom : you mean you could mount CloudFiles with NFS ?

as for me, I wrote a small sh script checking the mount point every x seconds and remounting it if necessary :S

no i could not mount cloudfiles using NFS, so instead use a bigger server with more hard drive space

yes i also used a script to mount it every so often, but after a while all my apache connections started hanging, so i needed to reboot the server which was becoming very risky

Sorry, I haven't been able to reproduce cloudfuse crashing or shutting down. Can you tell me what OS you're running on and what sort of operations you're doing on the mounted drive so I can try to reproduce?

hi Thanks for the reply,
I am running on ubuntu 10.04 and i am reading and writing media files to the mounted drive and i have more than 100k media files

@redbo : Same for me with Debian 5.

For now I have very few accesses per day (testing) and it's still disconnecting every once in a while (like once a day).
Is there a timeout when no accesses are done for a long period of time ?

from cloudfuse.

Still no fix/explanation ?
:O
thanks!

from cloudfuse.

same for me with centos 5.8
also did remounting scripts. a daily one and a health-check one.
the scripts will only work if the process (backup for example) is not stuck in the middle of operation.
(or else, I can't umount, obviously)

help???

from cloudfuse.
