macOS 15.5: Shared folder not working correctly

Open snebgloo opened this issue 7 months ago • 1 comments

Describe the issue

Since updating my MacBook to Sequoia 15.5, sharing a directory between MacOS and my Linux VM is not working anymore. The directory is mounted using this command, without any error: mount -t davfs 'http://127.0.0.1:9843' /mnt/share.

Creating a file works, but creating a directory returns an input/output error:

cd /mnt/share
mkdir test
mkdir: can't create directory 'test': Input/output error

This was working fine before updating to Sequoia 15.5.

Configuration

  • UTM Version: 4.6.5
  • macOS Version: Sequoia 15.5
  • Mac Chip (Intel, M1, ...): Apple M2

I think this is a duplicate of many other macOS issues. I would say that since Sequoia networking on UTM is severely broken, as Sequoia introduced security measures for working on local networks. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/technotes/tn3179-understanding-local-network-privacy

Can you include your vm config.plist

I’m on macOS Tahoe with the same issue, but one workaround is to restart UTM after adding a sharing folder. That works for me to get it working.

Sadly it does not work for me @bo2themax :( @osy I've edited my original message with my config.plist as a txt file attachment.
