Delete immediately on Desktop

Post by jwilliams108 » Fri Sep 21, 2012 11:44 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to setup my home folder to work on ZEVO - I've got Users/me/Documents and Users/me/Desktop as two separate volumes. Both seem fine - except that on the Desktop volume, the Trash isn't working - I get a notice that whatever I'm trying to delete will be deleted immediately. Trash works as expected on the Documents volume. Is there any reason for this? I can't see any difference between the two volumes.

Also, viewing either volume in the Finder occasionally displays an empty folder, although I can still see all of my desktop and document files and folders in the terminal. When mounting, I can see some zfs errors:

12-09-22 2:15:25.000 PM kernel: zfsdev_ioctl: function error 19 on command 58

Any idea why this might be happening?

Thanks!

Hmm. Puzzling to me. Results of the following command might help someone else to diagnose:

Code: Select all
sudo ls -h@ale ~/.Trashes && ls -h@alde /Users/me/Desktop && /Users/me/Documents && ls -l /Volumes

Thanks for the reply - a strange one indeed. As it happens, I decided to backup the stuff on my desktop, destroy the zfs child and re-create it. Seems to have sorted out the issue.
