OSX file permissions problem

maxf

[OSX 10.9, BC 2.0.401]
when I move a file (using terminal) from my home directory to my encrypted folder, all the file permissions are messed up:

> pwd
/Volumes/Boxcryptor/Dropbox/encrypted/
> mv ~/test.txt .
mv: ./test.txt: Input/output error
mv: ./test.txt: remove: Permission denied

The moved file is then set to:
---------- 1 mf staff 4096 20 Dec 23:23 test.txt

Something to do with how the BoxCryptor volume is mounted, probably.

More information:
- Dropbox doesn't like the moved file. Because it can't be read, Dropbox never finishes synchronising until you delete the file
- copying files with cp works fine, even across filesystems

Hi Max,

Thanks for the report. Just before Christmas we have released version 2.0.403.360. Does the new version also have the problem?

Best regards,

Hi Robert,
I've just tried it, and no improvement:
> pwd
/Volumes/Boxcryptor/Dropbox/encrypted
> ls -la ~/test.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 mf staff 24 21 Dec 02:06 /Users/mf/test.txt
> mv ~/test.txt .
mv: ./test.txt: Input/output error
mv: ./test.txt: remove: Permission denied
> ls -la test.txt
---------- 1 mf staff 4096 29 Dec 21:59 test.txt

Hi Max,

Thanks for the feedback. We'll investigate what's that problem.

Best regards,
Robert
