ntfs and ext doesn't mount

[timsofteng]

Hello. I installed dsbmd according to guide but I can't work with ntfs and ext partitions. I see devices in /media but they sometimes are empty or operation not permitted. Sometimes they mount well sometimes not. I don't understand. Could you help me please?

[mrclksr]

Hi @timsofteng ,

could you please post the output of tail -100 /var/log/dsbmd.log?

[timsofteng]

@mrclksr yes, sure.

There is log after start system.

By the way device which called "nixos" is usb portable drive which was NOT in port. I plugged it some times before but not under current uptime session. I dunno why dsbmd try to mount it as well.

[mrclksr]

Do you have fusefs-ext2 and fusefs-ntfs installed?

The log isn't deleted after reboot. What you see are older entries.

[timsofteng]

@mrclksr yep, all two are installed.

[mrclksr]

Ok. Let's start with NTFS: Try to mount your NTFS device. If it fails, get the last 20 lines from /var/log/dsbmd.log via tail -20 /var/log/dsbmd.log and post them here.

No errors. It mounts and works with manual mounting.

[mrclksr]

What about Ext?

[timsofteng]

What about Ext?

It works as well. Exfat have some issue. It mounts but contents are hidden. Like its empty but it doesn't

[mrclksr]

What does tail -20 /var/log/dsbmd.log say?

[mrclksr]

This is interesting: mount_fusefs: failed to exec fuse daemon: No such file or directory

Does /usr/local/bin/fuse-ext2 exist?

[timsofteng]

Yes

[mrclksr]

What does grep ^ext /usr/local/etc/dsbmd.conf say?

[timsofteng]

ext_opts = "rw,noatime"
ext4_mount_cmd_usr = "/sbin/mount_fusefs auto "${DSBMD_MNTPT}" fuse-ext2 -o 'rw+' ${DSBMD_DEVICE} "${DSBMD_MNTPT}""

[mrclksr]

What happens when you execute the command manually as root?:

/sbin/mount_fusefs auto /mnt fuse-ext2 -o 'rw+' /dev/da0s1

[timsofteng]

looks like something wrong with this command

[mrclksr]

Sorry, I forgot the second mount point:

/sbin/mount_fusefs auto /mnt fuse-ext2 -o 'rw+' /dev/da0s1 /mnt

[timsofteng]

I've tried but nothing happens.

[mrclksr]

I've tried but nothing happens.

If the command succeeds, there is no message printed on the screen. Have you checked if the device is mounted on /mnt after executing the command?

no, it doesn't.

[mrclksr]

What if you mount it read-only?

/sbin/mount_fusefs auto /mnt fuse-ext2 -o 'ro' /dev/da0s1 /mnt

[timsofteng]

What if you mount it read-only?

/sbin/mount_fusefs auto /mnt fuse-ext2 -o 'ro' /dev/da0s1 /mnt

sorry for delay. nothing happens

[timsofteng]

should i enable it manually?

usermount = true

[mrclksr]

should i enable it manually?

This is enabled by default. Make sure vfs.usermount is set to 1.

In order to make sure, there is no problem with your storage device, create Ext4 formatted memory disk, and see if dsbmd is
able to mount it:

# touch ext4.img
# mdconfig -s 1G -f ext4.img
# mkfs.ext4 /dev/md0
# mdconfig -d -u 0
# mdconfig -f ext4.img

Then try to mount md0 via DSBMC, or dsbmc-cli -m /dev/md0.
