Errors when moving files between different hard drives.

Postby Linares » Dec 16th, '19, 00:30

When I try to move files from the Linux ext4 partition to the "fuseblk" partition, I always receive two errors:

- Access denied to {destination}. Retry or cancel
- The file or folder {source} does not exist. Retry or cancel

Finally, to move the files well, I have to copy / paste / delete, with the consequent loss of time.

Is this error normal, and is there any way to avoid it?

Are you saying that copy/paste works from the same window, while move does not?

A permissions error means that the user who opened the window does not have permission to write into the "fuseblk" partition. But if copy/paste works while move does not, that would be very strange.

Looking at the gif, I see the destination as media, so I guess the destination is some sort of USB stick or external drive.

Often, people simply pull the USB drive out thinking that the files were saved, but in actuality, USBsticks are pretty slow, and take longer to save than it appears on screen. The right way to save and remove a USB is to save, then umount the USB stick. If it refuses to umount, it is because it is still saving to the USBstick - give it time to finish - it will umount when done.

You probably need to reformat or fsck the USBstick. See if that resolves the problem.

To answer your question another way: No that error is not normal.
But you need to add some more details, like what is the destination filesystem. From the screenshot it appears to be your first windows partition - is that an NTFS or FAT filesystem?
And for the file you show in the screenshot, does the filename maybe contain some special characters?

Can you please add the output of
Code: Select all
mount
lsblk -f
ls -al /home/and/Descargas | cat -vte

@jiml8
Indeed, copy / paste works without giving error. Instead, to move returns that error you can see.

@joescat
It is an internal hard disk of 1 Tb. No USB, or external, or anything like that.

@doktor5000
It is the internal hard drive in which I store photo, video, audio and documents. The file system is NTFS, but I don't know why Dolphin calls it "fuseblk."
I also find it strange that with copy / paste does not give the slightest problem.

Sounds like https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=378946 which is being tracked as a duplicate of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=364039
You would need to open a Mageia bugreport and ask to have the fix for this included in an update for Mageia 7.
