SAMBA share not accesible anymore

UCS - Univention Corporate Server
, ,
#1

After upgrade to 4.4-6 errata767. a share on a Fileserver (memberserver) is not accesible
the old setting on the PDC was
samba_share_old

this results in a (testpram -s)

      vfs objects = acl_xattr "recycle streams_xattr shadow_copy2"

and so samba cannot load the vfs module

and the logfile shows

Error loading module ‘/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/vfs/recycle streams_xattr shadow_copy2.so’: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/samba/vfs/recycle streams_xattr shadow_copy2.so: Kann die Shared-Object-Datei nicht öffnen: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden

A change to comma instead of blank

recycle,streams_xattr,shadow_copy2
in the GUI applies now the attributes in a correct way (regarding to testparam)

[toffice]
        csc policy = documents
        dos filemode = Yes
        hide unreadable = Yes
        include = /etc/samba/local.conf
        inherit acls = Yes
        inherit owner = windows and unix
        inherit permissions = Yes
        map acl inherit = Yes
        path = /mnt/tmoffice
        read only = No
        vfs objects = acl_xattr recycle streams_xattr shadow_copy2
        recycle:noversions = *.tmp,*.temp,*.o,*.obj,*.TMP,*.TEMP
        recycle:directory_mode = 0777
        recycle:touch = YES
        recycle:repository = .recycle/%U
        recycle:keeptree = YES
        recycle:versions = YES
        recycle:subdir_mode = 0700

after a service samba reload the share is accessible again

So it seems the behavoir from older 4.3 upwards has now changed to use commas instead of blanks?

Hi

I can confirm that this workaround has worked for me as well. I’ve been in touch with Univention support and since I’ve discovered your post in the midst of downgrading back to the last Samba package version. I can confirm that adding commas was the right thing to do and fixes the problematic shares on the latest errata level.

I’ve called Univention after validating my findings and referenced your thread. The’ll be working on a KB article. Since my system was updated to 4.4-6 recently and only updated to the latest Samba update this week I’m pretty certain that the iregression came up with this week’s errata updates.

TBH: I would have taken such a regression with more kindness if it had happened during a point release or a major upgrade, but not as a errata patch update.

Hi,

thanks to @Luckyh and the hint of @msi the article is now published.

There is already a bug for it which is linked in the above article. It is not related to current versions or updates.
Thanks for the solution and pointing to it.
