Errors when writing metadata to files on Windows Server

Good day!
I have an iMac running OSX 10.9 (Maverick) and Lightroom 5.2.
My catalog is on the local iMac drive, and the images are on SMB shared drive (handled by Windows 2012 server).
I decided to do the final layout of my album using InDesign, and for that I needed to access to images using Bridge. So selected all the images (the rated once...) and issue a Metadata/Save command.
The system came back with errors on many of the files (such as Photos are read only, and unknown errors).
Retrying to save the metadata on image that was flagged with an error usually (but not always) worked.
I tried to select save the metadata for few (6) images in a time, many times it was ok, but sometimes, one or two of them failed (and retrying again usually solved the problem).
It looks to me like a timing related issue.
Any ideas?
(After spending about an hour on this, I have exported the images to my local drive...). In general I don't have similar problems with other apps.
Any ideas?

I'm experiencing more or less the same behavior (see Read-only error when writing metadata to file over network (Synology DS1315+ using AFP) ). For me however, the problem is more pronounced if I use the AFP protocol and is better (I think as you described) if I use SMB (all done on a Synology DS1315+). With SMB it most often works but in very rare cases I also get the "read only" message!
Do you have solution to this? Or are you stuck as I am?
Cheers, Chris

  • Error when Writing Metadata to Files in Bridge (Mac) but not in Bridge (PC)

    We get an error when writing metadata to files in Bridge (Mac) but not in Bridge (PC). In the same drive and folder, the PC can successfully write a keyword to a file on the PC, where the Mac returns an error. I have researched this at the Adobe Knowledgebase, but their answer seemed to indicate it was a global issue, and we don't see that behavior on the PC.
    The client is a Mac of course, and the server volume is a Windows share volume. The Mac is bound to AD, and the domain\username and username formats have both been tried when logging in, but you receive the error in both.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi, I'm having the same problem using FreeNAS (which uses Samba and Netatalk in the backend), but I tried with both AFP and SMB on Mavericks and Yosemite, I still have the same issue.  I think it might be a timing issue with how lightroom interact with a slower write delay using network shares.  I suggest you also chime into this thread:  Lightroom 5 can't write metadata to DNG files   I really hope this is resolved as this is impacting my productivity as I moved my workflow to my Macbook with a shared NAS.

  • Error -51 when trying to copy file to windows server 2012

    When I try to copy a file from OSX to windows server 2012 share, it acts like its going to start and i get a pinwheel and finder is acting slow and finally error -51. although it does seem to copy over the folder with correct name but no files inside. I had this issue on mavericks as well and now on yosemite beta. Please help!

    If the drive is formatted HFS then you are limited to 32 characters on a file name. If it is formatted HFS + then you can have file names as long as 255 characters. I am not familiar withi the format you say the drive is formatted in so I can't speak to it.
    If you are receiving -50 errors that can indicate a file name that is too long OR an illegal character in the filename regardless of its length.
    If you are actually using 10.3.8 as your profile states then that may be part of the problem. Many of these problems existed in 10.3.X but were fixed in 10.4
    I remember that 10.3.8 had issues copying to external drives when there were more than a certain number of characters in a filename. I don't remember the number but for some reason 10 or 12 is what comes to mind. It caused me many problems when I would try and copy files to a Zip disk that I used to have. Since I updated to 10.4 those issues have never occured again.
    Since you know what folder the problematic files are in why not just open the folder and try to copy files one at a time. When you get to the one(s) that is a problem, change the file name to something shorter.
    A better solution would be to update to 10.4 but with 10.5 coming out sometime in the Spring of 2007 this may not be the time.

  • Error when loading a flat file from Application server.

  • Extremely Slow Response when attempting to display files on Windows Server

    I have set up File Sharing on my MacBook Pro using SMB and defined the folders that are available to be shared. When I look at the Network Neighbourhood in Windows Explorer the Macbook appears listed with all the other PCs on the network. When I try to open the Macbook in Explorer it takes a very long time to open (about 2 minutes or so) and shows me the list of folders. When I try to open a folder the exact same thing happens - it opens after a couple of minutes, this continues for every folder that I try to open. I thought it might be that Explorer needed to "catalog" the files in the folders but the same thing happens each time - if I close the connection and try again it takes the same amount of time. What is very strange is that if I connect to the Windows Server from the Mac opening and looking at shared folders/files is instantaneous so clearly this is not a network problem. If I use the Win2K3 server to look at other computers/files the result is the same - instantaneous access, so it has nothing to do with the Win2K3 server - clearly the problem is with the MacBook serving up the file information to the Win2K3 server. I have tried with AFP on and off and the result is the same. The user name/pwd is the same on both the Win2K3 and the Macbook - and I have tried with a different username on the Win2K3 - no difference. Anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening?

    Yes they are on the same workgroup, on ethernet, plugged into the same switch. The Mac can read and copy files of the Win2K3 server with no problem. The problem is clearly at the Mac end as the Win2K3 server can view files on any machine on the network without the slow response, the Mac can view files on the Win2K3 server without the slow response, it is only when the Win2K3 server tries to view files on the Mac.

    Hello everyone
    I have a problem to join computers to the domain.
    Well I can not understand Spanish but I guess it is related to RPC. :D
    In that case, you need to make sure your DNS entries are correct in clients NIC. Similar threads here:

    What's the reason you want to regenerate database dictionary?
    when you run catalog.sql and catproc.sql on live database you will get these errors because the objects already exists. You can ignore them. You will get other errors when create public synonym etc..

  • ERROR WHEN SAVING METADATA TO FILE

    how do I fix this

    tiffs are supported, but you probably have some incompatible metadata in your tiffs (assuming tiffs are not otherwise corrupt). Consider logging bug report and sending example of offending tiff to Adobe.
    Were all those tiffs updated using a common application (other than Lightroom)?
    Consider using exiftool to read/write metadata and see how that works. Assuming it is what I think it is (and not an unsupported camera problem or other legit incompatibility), you may even be able to fix the problem using exiftool, but definitely save problem files to support bug report to Adobe.

  • Error writing metadata to file

    I am getting constant error messages from Bridge CS4 when trying to add keywords to my images "Error Writing Metadata to file "XXXX". It's very annoying and destroying my workflow. I have tried resetting original preferences, and using purge cashe. Finally I reorganized my entire folder structure which seemed to make the problem less frequent.
    The circumstance that makes this error pop up most frequently is when I add keywords to a handful of files that already have another keyword assigned. Quitting the folder and then re-entering it solves the problem for the photos with the current error, but then 20 or so photos later I get the error message again.
    Any Fixes?

    A new suspicion was that the read/write data might be different for the images files themselves than it was for the folder holding them. So I applied the read/write permission to the image files themselves. No luck though. Still getting "Error writing metadata to file xxxx" Errors. Would love to be spending all this time editing photos instead of chasing down bugs. Brand new MacBook Pro and I'm spending more time trying to fix errors than using the software. ::sigh::

  • I/O Error when writing access Log buffer to file. error number: 28

    Hi,
    Oracle OracleAS Web Cache 10.1.2.3.0, Build 10.1.2.3.0 080201 is writing events like this:
    [alert 13215] I/O Error when writing access Log buffer to file. error number: 28
    I've looked for this alert and i've found this description:

    Severity: alert
    Cause: I/O error happened when OracleAS Web Cache tried to write to the access log file.
    Action: Check the status of access log file. For example, see if the disk is full
    Anybody knows what "error number: 28" stands for? The logs are sended to other server and it seems that the disk size is ok.
    thanks!

    I tested again...it seems LabVIEW doesn't like the way I wrote the measurement files. I attached a set of VIs (ZIP-file) to give you a clue how it was done. When I try to save and read a file containing just plain DBLs from a 1D-Array (see attached file generating VI) it works perfectly well for large file sizes.
    So there might get something messed up by the way LabVIEW saved the measured data. You'll notice, that I (accidentally) left the "prepend array string size" input of "write to binary file" function unwired which means that the size information will be written as a type of header. Maybe this is the reason that it doesn't work as expected...

Error: NFS3ERR_NOENT  -   This is by design of OneFS, we coalesce files and then flush them out to disk which is why the commit time is accurate but the file is not immediately available. however when an async option is used within the mount options this should be avoided if writing asynchronously to the cluster.  Has anyone else seen this behavior lately? (current workaround is to store locally and transfer to the cluster via Finder)

    That error can happen for many reasons...one of the reasons that I occassionaly get it is because I try exporting a movie to an external drive that has been formated in the old FAT32 instead of the NTSF standard.  FAT32 only allows for file sizes up to 2 gigs.  And as soon as it reaches that...I would get that error.  I don't know if that is why you are getting that error...but it would be easy to check.  1) are you generating a file that is over 2 gigs?  2) is your drive that you are exporting to FAT 32 (just right click the drive in My Computer and select "properties" then just look for what it says next to "file system".

    Hi,
    Looks like your mmc dll is corrupted, with your install and uninstall of software.
    Two Options:
    1. Upgrade the Kernel with latest Patch level, which comes with new SAPMMC.dll file
    OR
    2. Just download the SAPMMC*.sar file from service market place and extract in exe directory, since it is windows re-booting the server doesn't hurt.
    Hope this helps. points are welcome.
