Storage error: [File chunk write error: No such device]

[leffeman@gmail.com]

libtorrent, rtorrent 0.9.

When downloading a file to a NTFS partition, this message is displayed, and no data is written:

Storage error: [File chunk write error: No such device]

My NTFS partition is mounted using FUSE 2.5.3 and ntfsprogs 1.13.0.

I think this might be because FUSE does not associate devices with mounted filesystems. And certainly not in a global way (no display in mount or df).

Not my problem[TM], use a less weird setup. ;)

This is the actual cause:

mmap2(NULL, 262144, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 6, 0) = -1 ENODEV (No such device)

Checking the FUSE wiki, I come along the  development roadmap which contains the item "Writable shared mmap support".

I tried switching MAP_SHARED with MAP_PRIVATE, and... well, I should have read the manpage a little better, MAP_PRIVATE does not write data to file.

Better wait for FUSE then.

I'm having the same problems, damned if I know how to fix it. Anyone who can please email me.

The only way to fix it is to wait for FUSE getting writable shared mmap support. Or to use a different filesystem driver, if available.

Same error with ntfs-3g.

Using rtorrent with ntfs-3g should work if you have Linux kernel 2.6.26 or later, where support for shared writable mmap was added in the ntfs-3g implementation.

I have this problem when downloading to ext3 partition. rtorrent 0.8.2/ libtorrent 0.12.2

This exact problem, including the "no such device"? Unlikely. What is the message?

This solution worked for me. Upgraded to 2.6.26-1 from Debian Etch (2.6.18) and can write to all my ntfs drives now.

hope it can be fixed soon, same problem if I write to ntfs drive.

See above your comment, it has already been fixed in Linux 2.6.26.
