move to trash - IO deletion error
hello,
i just found your programm and im pleased by it. but ctrl+t/rm-trash doenst seem to work?
#1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.6.13-1~bpo12+1 (2024-02-15)
trash-cli is installed via apt. fresh rust installation.
regards
That's great to hear!
An IO error means that the deletion failed typically due to permission errors. trash-cli also isn't used, the as the trash crate is used directly.
Closing, as I don't think this issue is actionable, but please feel free to add comments indicating what dua should do differently here.
hm ive tested it again. on my ext4 partition it works. on this zfs pool it dont. but trash-cli works and moves the files into .Trash-1000/files e.g. ive looked up file ownership and permissions. this should not be the case. but im to dumb to find out on my own why this isnt working. //edit hmm this folder were it doenst work is dataset-volume within the main pool. in the main dua i works to move to trash, but not in the sub-pool. regards
It's likely that the files also can't be deleted from the trash then - permissions may allow to move them, but still prevent deletion.
A good test is also to use rm <filepath> - it will fail just like dua if permissions are an issue.
permissions are not the issue, rm/trash-cli dont have any problems in the child dataset. only dua i got this error in the child dataset.
chris@debian-server:~$ zfs list
NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
storage-zfs 14.6T 7.06T 1.37G /storage-zfs
storage-zfs/Apps 120K 7.06T 120K /storage-zfs/Apps
storage-zfs/Games 873G 7.06T 873G /storage-zfs/Games

i can move to trash via dua in /storage-zfs, but not in /storage-zfs/media or any other child dataset of storage-zfs.
trash-cli does the same that dua does when deleting single files, but there may be a difference in order when deleting directories. It's hard to say what's really happening here though without a clear description of what was tried in trash-cli that works and that doesn't work in dua.
This makes the issue about trashing behaviour though, and not about permission issues which are nothing the application can do anything about.
i fiddled a bit more with it, installed rust in the root account and started dua with the root account. i can trash stuff in the child dataset now. a bit of a strange behaviour. now ive to find out how to install rust stuff systemwide.
