Public bug reported: Trying to get caja-share working I completely uninstalled it and samba and reinstalled caja-share and dependencies. Now sharing doesn't at all. I get error:
'net usershare' returned error 255: mkdir failed on directory /var/run/samba/msg.lock: Permission denied net usershare: cannot open usershare directory /var/lib/samba/usershares. Error No such file or directory Please ask your system administrator to enable user sharing. This is fixed by installing samba package. I tried to submit this under caja-share but launchpad doesn't believe that it exists. "caja-share" does not exist in Ubuntu. Please choose a different package. If you're unsure, please select "I don't know" ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: caja-share 1.12.0-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-38.57-generic 4.4.19 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-38-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: MATE Date: Mon Oct 10 00:25:54 2016 InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-09-14 (25 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160719) SourcePackage: caja-extensions UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: caja-extensions (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug xenial -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631842 Title: caja-share should depend on samba To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/caja-extensions/+bug/1631842/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
