Re: Error renaming temporary file: Permission denied



Hello Jason,

I recently moved my music collection a ReadyNAS NAS. Now when I try to save
tag changes to files I get the following error:

Failed to write comments to file
‘/media/readynas/p/prodigy/the_day_is_my_enemy/03_rebel_radio.flac’: Error
renaming temporary file: Permission denied

Where is this temporary file it's trying to rename?

I own and have write permission for everything on the NAS:

jbodnar@jbodnar:/media/readynas$ ls -la
total 132
drwxr-xr-x 2 jbodnar root    0 Feb  6 21:51 .
drwxr-xr-x 5 root    root 4096 Feb  6 21:59 ..
drwxr-xr-x 2 jbodnar root    0 Feb  6 17:10 1
drwxr-xr-x 2 jbodnar root    0 Feb  6 16:58 2

I tried to reproduce here, easytag 2.4.3 *and* 2.5 running on a
CentOS7, the files are located on a remote QNAP NAS mounted locally
using cifs (through gvfs).

I see no problem while either renaming mp3 files or saving tags BUT I
definitely reproduce a similar issue while attempting to edit FLAC files:
Cannot write tag in file 'foo.flac'
Error opening file '/mnt/.../foo.flac': Operation not supported

And clearly, from strace, I see:
open("/mnt/.../foo.flac", O_RDWR) = -1 EOPNOTSUPP (Operation not supported)

EOPNOTSUPP is pretty clear: operation impossible on a remote file

I'm afraid it's a design limitation in either easytag or a library it
uses, although it does work for mp3 files - I didn't search why. Maybe
it should make a temporary local copy, edit it and push it back to the
remote location instead of failing like that.

As a workaround, I'd copy the FLAC files locally, edit them, push them
back to the NAS.

BTW, are the authors still here?
