save file on a smb windows share failed

[babaq]

i am not sure it is the problem of my ubuntu system or the package, so i'll fire straight a issue here.

it used to work on another windows system to save file to our shared file server, but when i setup a ubuntu system today, save just failed. the network shared folder is mounted properly, since i could browse the content, create and delete files. i checked out teh/jld_split branch of HDF5, problem remains.

using JLD
save("/share folder mount path/test.jld", "a",[1,2,3,4])

instead, save("/home/alex/test.jld", "a",[1,2,3,4]) works well.

Does

open("/share folder mount path/test.txt", "w") do file
    write(file, "testing\n")
end

also fail? If so, it has nothing to do with JLD.

[babaq]

writing text file works well, but writing *.jld or *.mat still show errors.

using HDF5
h5open("/share folder mount path/mydata.h5", "w") do file
    write(file, "A", [1,2,3])
end

pure hdf5 write works fine also.

And you're sure there's nothing wonky about that particular file name? If you try a brand new name, you get the same problem?

The reason I ask is because (currently) this seems to make little sense. JLD uses HDF5 to write the file; a JLD file is just an HDF5 file with a few extra pieces of information. So if HDF5 has permission, I don't see why JLD wouldn't.

i tried different name with or without file extensions, the issue remains. right now, i am getting around the problem by syncing remote files to my local folder.

The files were actually created in mounted share folder, but error seems occur in the process of closing the created files.
