nfs

[Bob Schmid]

attempting to do a tcl command within an nfs directory.

receiving this:

nfs directory is:

/iface_smat/test/e_156_t/eh_156_001/”

attempted:

glob /iface_smat/test/e_156_t/eh_156_001/*

Bob,

Try putting single quotes around your glob spec.

This may also be related to the O/S maximum file definition (I don’t recall how to find that with each O/S but I think there are discussion on the forum related to finding and changing the Maximum file size options).

just some thoughts, I could be way off.

In your post you said you tried command:

Code:

glob /iface_smat/test/e_156_t/eh_156_001/*

In reading the syntax of the glob command, I think you meant to do this:

Code:

glob -directory /iface_smat/test/e_156_t/eh_156_001/ *

Hope this helps,

glob -directory /iface_smat/test/e_156_t/eh_156_001/ *

and several other syntax variations

still:

Error: couldn’t read directory “/iface_smat/test/e_156_t/eh_156_001/”: file too big

Tcl and NFS

One issue, at least up until 8.5a1, is that a fair number of tests in the core test suite fail when run in an NFS-mounted directory. This is because of the fact that NFS only supports a subset of the classic semantics.

😕

Will probably use exec ls to create a list to process than file  (mtime, delete)commands seem fine.

Bob,

Thanks for sharing that.
