1.2.8: Unable to duplicate or upload files, "locked" messages
I am working in a remote directory I've been using for weeks without problems.
Now (it *seems* since 1.2.8) I am suddenly having trouble writing files there.
1.) I tried to duplicate an existing file in a Finder window with the Cmd-D combo, and I get the message 'The operation cannot be completed because the item "xxx copy.pdf" is locked'. "xxx.pdf" would be the file I tried to duplicate.
2.) I tried to upload a local file to the same remote directory. I got the exact same message, just with the appropriate filename (without "copy")
3.) I tried to create a new directory using Cmd-Shift-N, and that *worked*
4.) Deleting the remote directory worked too
5.) When I tried to upload the same local file to that new directory, that worked the first time I tried it
6.) When I tried it again in another, also newly created directory, I got the locked message again for the file.
7.) When I tried it yet another time, again in a fresh directory, I got a slightly different message: 'The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for "xxx.pdf" '.
8.) I think I was able to create a new file once, but could not reproduce that. I think I used Cmd-C/Cmd-V.
9.) I could also edit that file in BBEdit, and saving from BBEdit seems to work every time.
10.) Another time I tried the Cmd-C/Cmd-V thing, I think I did end up with a copy, but it was truncated to zero bytes.
The error messages always complain about the file, never about the enclosing directory.
The remote permissions on this directory haven't changed, and when I check them on the remote machine, they look OK:
$ ls -lFad .
drwxrwxr-x 16 mliyanage mliyanage 4096 Jul 17 15:06 ./
The behavior seems to be inconsistent, it doesn't always happen the same way and sometimes it will work partially.
The remote machine is
$ uname -a
Linux xxx 2.6.18-90.el5 #1 SMP Tue Apr 15 18:05:09 EDT 2008 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Inappropriate?Marc - 1.2.9 is out now and on the auto-updater and addresses this [we had a file mismatch with the 1.2.8 distribution, won't happen again]
The company and 1 other person say
this solves the problem
