Fatal Error: Failed to mount nfs volume timed out
- 
 Okay, so there isn’t a space in / and images, that’s good. Have you ensured firewall is disabled? 
 [code]sudo service firewalld stop; sudo ufw disable[/code]
- 
 Firewall stopped and disabled on system startup 
- 
 Also, ensure the .mntcheck files are in place: 
 [code]sudo touch /images/.mntcheck
 sudo touch /images/dev/.mntcheck
 chmod -R 777 /images[/code]
- 
 apl@Apl-Fog:~$ sudo touch /images/.mntcheck 
 apl@Apl-Fog:~$ sudo touch /images/dev/.mntcheck
 apl@Apl-Fog:~$ chmod -R 777 /images

 chmod: changing permissions of ‘/images/.mntcheck’: Operation not permittedDont really know how or what to do to resolve that . . . =(

 I want to thank you for your time and help in resolving this issue. Unfortunately I have to get going as we are closing at the moment. I wont be back in until Monday. Again thank you I honestly didn’t expect a response let alone one almost immediately. 
- 
 The chmod commands probably also need the sudo command prepended to it: 
 [code]sudo chmod -R 777 /images[/code]I don’t know if this will even work though considering, from what I can see, the nfs isn’t even mounting. 
- 
 I do not get a return when using sudo apl@Apl-Fog:~$ sudo chmod -R 777 /images 
 [sudo] password for apl:
- 
 You need to type the apl user’s password. 
- 
 I cut that off early. That was just a mistake it just goes back to prompt with out a return. apl@Apl-Fog:~$ sudo chmod -R 777 /images 
 [sudo] password for apl:
 apl@Apl-Fog:~$
- 
 that’s fine. There shouldn’t be a return, if there is it means something has gone wrong.

 This post is deleted!

 Just out of curiosity I recreated the upload task in the debug mode. When I list the directory from the client machine the /images directory is not visible. Is it a matter of file permissions / sharing ? 
- 
 For give me if this is a stupid question. But I finally got the permissions issue sorted out. I can open the /images folder now. Here is the stupid part of the question, and believe me I do feel stupid. Is there supposed to be a visible file named .mntcheck? As you can see by the screen shot the file is empty… Again I’m very sorry if this a stupid waste of time.

 Okay Yes I figured out there is supposed to be a file there from another post I however do not know how to regenerate them. I tried running the installer again but that wasn’t any help 
- 
 I Tried this: root@Apl-Fog:~# ls -l /images/.mntcheck 
 -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Oct 9 19:11 /images/.mntcheck
 root@Apl-Fog:~# ls -l /images/dev/.mntcheck
 -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Oct 8 14:03 /images/dev/.mntcheck
 root@Apl-Fog:~# touch /images/.mntcheck
 root@Apl-Fog:~# chmod 777 /images/.mntcheck
 root@Apl-Fog:~# touch /images/dev/.mntcheck
 root@Apl-Fog:~# chmod 777 /images/dev/.mntcheckHowever the directory is still empty [url=“/_imported_xf_attachments/1/1420_Screenshot from 2014-10-09 19:22:01.png?:”]Screenshot from 2014-10-09 19:22:01.png[/url]

 I’m only going on a limb and guessing you’re fairly new to the linux world? Files that begin with a . are “hidden” from the filesystem. This would be why you’re seeing “contents: nothing”. When you’re running the chmod commands I’d recommend using with the -R argument. The reason is because chmod 777 <file/foldername> only affects the individual item. chmod -R 777 <folder> means to set the persmissions recursively which is what you need. 
- 
 To see hidden files, change your command ‘ls -l’ to ‘ls -la’. Edit: If you want to see hidden files/folders over the file manager, press ctrl + h. 
- 
 I will give that a shot this afternoon. Also yeah kind of a noob, the last time I had to use Linux was for the cert back in early 2000. I didn’t really pass either.
