Thanks for reporting this issue and flagging the related bug report. That report details these steps to reproduce on redhat:
- Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a share on Windows AD server. 2. Join a system to AD domain via realmd (samba + winbind) 3. Try to access the share hosted on Windows system via smbclient - Actual results: 'smbclient' command shows an error/warning while accessing the share as non-privileged user e.g. local linux user. --- gencache_init: Failed to create directory: /home/localuser1/.cache/samba - No such file or directory --- - Expected results: 'smbclient' command shouldn't throw any error while accessing the share as non-privileged user. Do these exact steps reproduce the issue for you on Ubuntu 20.04? Did you use the workaround of doing 'mkdir ~/.cache' to resolve things locally, or did you take a different approach? ** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1960754 Title: gencache_init: Failed to create directory: /var/www/.cache/samba - Permission denied To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1960754/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
