KiCad 6.0.4 Save Issue
#gettingstarted
Hello - I have recently installed KC 6.0.4 on a Windows 10 platform. I have a file repository for projects on a Ubuntu server running Samba, open permissions. When I attempt to save a schematic I get the following errors: 10:16:31 AM: Failed to copy the file 'C:\Users\tradice\AppData\Local\Temp\eesDA04.tmp' to 'H:\Projects\WWVRcvr\WWVRcvr.kicad_sch' (error 5: Access is denied.) 10:16:31 AM: File 'C:\Users\tradice\AppData\Local\Temp\eesDA04.tmp' couldn't be renamed 'H:\Projects\WWVRcvr\WWVRcvr.kicad_sch' (error 5: Access is denied.) 10:17:28 AM: Failed to copy the file 'C:\Users\tradice\AppData\Local\Temp\eesB989.tmp' to 'H:\Projects\WWVRcvr\CNotes.kicad_sch' (error 5: Access is denied.) 10:17:28 AM: File 'C:\Users\tradice\AppData\Local\Temp\eesB989.tmp' couldn't be renamed 'H:\Projects\WWVRcvr\CNotes.kicad_sch' (error 5: Access is denied.) I have verified I have full administrative rights to my local (C) directory and the permissions to the repository (H) are set open on both Linux and Samba. I am NOT initiating KiCad on the Windows machine in administrative mode, although I have done so and tested, with the same results. An odd end result / also observed effect is all of the component values that were saved have vanished, although the reference designators are still intact??? Could someone guide me as to where I am going wrong? Thank You! |
Cab you access h: via the cli or file explorer?
It Sounds line samba getting upset, which is why I usually use NFS and mount the remote drive on the linux workstation I don't use windows much if at all, but when I did use samba it was always a pig to get the permissions working correctly. Even things like thge workgroup and domain sometimes caused grief. See: Near the end are a couple of suggestions regarding a registry entry and also using smbpasswd -a muuser On Wed, 06 Apr 2022 16:15:21 -0700 "tradice via groups.io" <tradice@...> wrote: Hello - I have recently installed KC 6.0.4 on a Windows 10 platform.

Following up on this issue:
When I use K/C6.04 on a Windows platform, creating a new project on a local drive and working with it, everything operates as expected. I can also zip the design directory, back it up to the (H) drive (the Linux machine) and restore it, either to the same Windows platform or another. When the design directory is unzipped to a different Windows platform, running the same OS and K/C, it operates correctly. So, I would consider this a closed, but worked around, issue. I would still LOVE to know WHY this failed... Best Regards and Thank you for the people who replied! |
Yup, big fan of Syncthing. What an absolute winner that software is.
