I?m trying to setup Spotlight with Tracker (2.3 from Ubuntu repo) backend in Ubuntu 20.04 and Samba 4.12.7. I?ve followed the wiki closely but every time I try to search I get this in the logs: [2020/10/02 10:43:42.078242, 0] ../../source3/rpc_server/mdssvc/mdssvc_tracker.c:403(mds_tracker_search_start) mds_tracker_search_start: no connection to Tracker [2020/10/02 10:43:42.079897, 0]

Hi Ralph, Someone has created this: https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15379 Looks like the same issue. What?s a good way to fund this? Buy Samba+ and/or support from SerNet, make a donation through samba.org or something else? -Perttu > On 19. Aug 2024, at 16.21, Ralph Boehme <slow at samba.org> wrote: > > ?Interesting.

Hello! I have a quite large installation that currently supports OSX clients by forcing them to SMB1 with no streams (via the "nsmb.conf") file. This setup forces the OSX clients to generate their own ._[FILENAME] appledouble files for files with resource forks (like adobe documents). We recently discovered the fine work that's been done on vfs_fruit and wanted to see it it could

Thanks for the response! This would be really helpful because we use a lot of old adobe type 1 fonts that are 100% resource fork and are rendered unusable without the marshalled xattr's in addition to the AFP_ streams. While ideally having it seamlessly integrated into samba would be great, if it's easier to run a one-time conversion utility we can do that too. Thanks! -S On Wed, Apr

(apologies to Ralph, I replied directly to him w/o copying the lists, so here we go again) In my testing that wasn't the case. If I manually copy the apple generated AppleDouble file and it's 0 byte main file to my test system, the correct size (including the resource forks) are shown but the file type is not translated. Using "GetFileInfo" a file copied to the new

Hi Louis, I used your excellent packages but also tried building from source. I?m trying to get Tracker working. Elasticsearch was simpler to get going but it doesn?t really suite the use case due to limitations in fscrawler. I actually created the mdssvc user but also tried directly under root once the dedicated user didn?t work. The problem might be somewhere in D-Bus configuration but I

Interesting. This will likely take a day or two to diagnose and fix. Hopefully someone comes around and funds this fix. Can you please file a bugreport to we can track this and more folks become aware of this? -slow On 7/9/24 11:40 AM, Perttu Aaltonen via samba wrote: > Hi, > > I finally found out why I?ve had trouble getting Spotlight searches > working well with the latest

Hi, I finally found out why I?ve had trouble getting Spotlight searches working well with the latest installation I?m working on. It looks like searches won?t work if there are any accented characters in the share name. In this case it is the ? character. Running mount in macOS shows it like this: //user at server.address/Share_with_the_O%CC%88_character on /Volumes/Share_with_the_?_character

Hi, More information is needed. What?s in Samba logs? What?s in fscrawler logs? Are you able to see the indexed data with Kibana? I?d start with making sure fscrawler is able to add data to elasticsearch and that it?s visible and searchable with Kibana. If that works then on to Samba. -Perttu > On 1.

I?m not sure if this is related, but there was a regression a while back in handling resource forks in folder icons. It was supposed to be fixed in 4.10.13 but I don?t think it quite works yet and I haven?t had the time to test it further yet. -Perttu > On 30 May 2020, at 21.00, Martin Steiner / 3MF GmbH via samba <samba at lists.samba.org> wrote: > > I changed the configuration

I just tested today the same operation via a different protocol  (AFP) and against macOS AFP server and got a similar issue (error -43 in  Finder).  There may be something wrong with the client atm. You could test against macOS  SMB server and if it's broken there as well,

Hi, Is anyone using Spotlight with Elasticsearch in production and what kind of tweaking have you had to do? Certain search types seem to work out of the box, but others not. Perhaps fscrawler and Elasticsearch need some customization that the wiki doesn?t mention. There also seems to be a difference in using the main search box in the Finder window or the more granular options below, even if

When comparing to native macOS Spotlight searches, the Samba & elasticsearch combo is much slower, at least for me. Samba takes minutes to return a few hundred results, while native macOS returns thousands of results in a few seconds. This is remotely over a mobile connection, LAN is probably better. Is this due to the missing Spotlight RPC packet fragmentation support mentioned in the
