This was silently dropped the first time. Assuming it was spam-filtered because gmail chose binary mime types for the attached output. Trying again with cat.txt and 9cat.txt, respectively (which is what I should have done in the first place). Colin ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Colin DeVilbiss Date: Mar 21, 2007 10:59 PM Subject: 9pfuse-mounted files don't "work" (Mac OS X on Power) To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu I'm running on a Power-based Mac Mini with an up-to-date MacFUSE and freshly cvs update -d'ed /usr/local/plan9. In one terminal, I run "plumber" and "9pfuse -D `namespace`/plumb /mnt/plumb". Snippet from the other terminal: % 9p read plumb/rules | wc 126 342 2962 % 9p ls plumb | wc 11 110 554 % ls /mnt/plumb | wc 11 11 81 % cat /mnt/plumb/rules | wc 0 0 0 % 9 cat /mnt/plumb/rules | wc 0 0 0 The "9pfuse -D" output corresponding to the two "cat" instances are attached (as cat.out and 9cat.out, respectively, with newlines around FUSE cmd/rsp pairs). The same thing happens for acme files: "ls" works, "cat file" and "echo foo > file" don't. The MacFUSE demos from that website work also (sshfs, SpotlightFS), so I don't expect that it's just a FUSE problem. Has anybody else seen something like this? Am I doing something obviously wrong? Thanks in advance for any help. Colin DeVilbiss
