It says ,,mount: No such device" every time I tried to mount my FR!TZBox network storage.

My smartphone is the Vernee Apollo Lite, running stock Android 6 with systemless root. Is there any way to get cifsmanager to work or is there any alternative? The best thing would be when I could mount and choose network storage as default save location at "USB & Storage" and if I could move apps onto it with Apps2SD just like with SD cards. I would even install a custom ROM.

Autostart on Boot does not work

Hi,

I installed CFIS Manager on my Android Mediaplayer.

But my problem ist, that the CIFS are not mounted on startup.

I set the settings to "Load ifs module" and "Load via insmod"

Has someone a tip for me ?

Thank you,

Ive using cifsmanager to mount my nas via smb.

Everything is fine...but...i cant see the Buttons or the menu to add more mountpounts.

Only black Background and one orange Button to mount.

I only can add 1 mount.

Any Suggestions?

Hey f3d0r!

Really cool app! I've one feature requests for it:

In most cases it's too complex, give for every mount an path where the share should mountet. Maybe you can implement an setting "General mount root" and mount there the stuff under hostname and share name? Ex.: //192.168.100.1/test would be /sdcard/mounts/192.168.100.1/test if the "mount root" is /sdcard/mounts.

The app should create the path automatically and should mount there. And when the share is unmounted, the path can deleted (you should be very sure, that the path is unmounted before you delete it)

Seeing as I have a high upload rate on my connection I have been trying to stream outside of the lan. I have a decent NAS with films encoded for my HTC desire - I've set up a DNS domain and forwarded the incoming ports (445 for cifs?) to my nas. It won't connect unfortunately however my laptop on a WAN connection can connect using the same details for server etc however Cifsmanager fails to mount. Any ideas what I'm missing?

For example I can connect through CIFS from my laptop to my NAS by 'SMB://xxxxx.dyndns.net/films'

Edit: My guess is that Cifsmanager doesn't handle DNS in any way

is the username and password for the router?

First of all, thanks for a very helpful app!

I have a problem though, however it is not directly linked to this application. I thought someone might be able to answer anyway. I can mount and I can play .mp3's and .avi's successfully with RockPlayer. My internal music player or any other music application I've tried, however, is only able to see the files, but not play them. Whenever I choose one of the .mp3's from my mounted folder it just skips until it reaches one of the .mp3s that are stored locally on my sdcard.

Does anyone know of a music player that is able to play from the mounted folder or does anyone know how to configure it in a way that allows the built-in player to play them successfully?

Thanks in advance :)

Hi all,

I am running LeeDroid 1.9a, and have managed to successfully mount several Windows 7 shares, using settings as per the one above...

However, when I choose the Open Directory option, ESZip Viewer launches then says Filetype xxxx is not supported now!

If I press home, then launch ES File Explorer, the mounted folder is empty, and when I return to CIFS Manager, the shares are no longer mounted.

If I press home when the shares are mounted and try to ls the mount point in Terminal Emulator, I get can't open '.': Value too large for defined data type.

New Version: CifsManager v1.1 released!

08/31/2010 - Changes in v1.1:

- added elementary support for mounting NFS shares

-- specify the Share Path as <server>:<path> (e.g. 192.168.1.17:/mnt/Spajz)

-- Username and Password fields are ignored in this case

Remark:

- If you want to mount NFS shares you should have the basic knowledge to load the necessary kernel modules in an appropriate init script yourself.

- The newest version of EStrong FileExplorer lacks the necessary intent-filters to be launched with the "Open Directory..." context menu option (should still work with Astro).
[Android Apps and Games] f3d0r:
New Version: CifsManager v1.2 released!

09/01/2010 - Changes in v1.21:

- reworked the "Open Directory..." feature

-- should work with Estrongs (again) and Astro

-- due to the lack of a standard intent Estrongs is preferred if both file managers are installed

-- this command is available in a share's context menu when mounted

- changed the standard action for mounted shares to "Open Directory..."

Could someone please post a small tutorial "4 DUMMIES" ?

I have a Samsung Galaxy S, and would love to be able to play some movies stored in my NAS.

Cant get it working

Hi

The Idea is excelent, i can't get it working.

First I had some mistake, because of a ( opening bracked in the password. perhaps you coud mask it to enable also complex passwords

if the mount point does not exist, there is an error, No such file or directory

if the path is present, i get a Permission denied.

do you have any idea whats wrong?

Edit:

Found the solution...

- Mounting a share as root does not work (root on remote system), perhaps synology prevents this

- if you use complex passwords, add " to your password, at the start and at the end... ;)

New Version: CifsManager v1.3 released!

09/03/2010 - Changes in v1.31:

- added correct quoting for special characters (",',{,[,\...)

-- for Share Path, Mount Point, Username, Password

-- using NICE mount points like /mnt/cifs/S{\ pace and safe passwords possible now :)

-- eventual shell metacharacters in Options string have to be explicitly quoted

- re-added permission WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE

-- so CifsManager is able to auto-create mount points on your SD-Card (without asking for root)

-- convenient and useful for feature crippled software like Rockplayer

Remark:

Do not mount/umount shares on your SD-Card when in Mass-Storage mode.

In other words: Avoid using mount points on your SD-Card if possible ;)
[Android Apps and Games] f3d0r:
As you stated yourself, this is a permission problem.
[Android Apps and Games] f3d0r:
Do NOT do this with CifsManager >= v1.3 as correct quoting is done automatically for you.

[Android Apps and Games] reallango:
Ok well I still haven't been able to get this working. I think a good option for you too add would be for it to be able to let you know if CIFS is enabled in the kernel. That way you can figure out real easy if that is your problem. Instead I just get an error about Mount: No such device.

Plus if anyone can recommend a kernel rom setup that allows for this on the evo that would be killer.

I've set up the folder to share to everyone connected to my network. The mount point folder is already created on the SDCARD also.

I use adb to enter commands.

insmod /sdcard/cifs/cifs.ko

You are getting this error because your kernel lacks the necessary CIFS support (as specified in the prerequisites listed in first post).

Try to find a cifs module matching your kernel/rom or use a different kernel.

[Android Apps and Games] f3d0r:
Most Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: When trying to mount a share I only get an error message saying...

"No such device".

A: Your current kernel or rom lacks the necessary CIFS support. Try to find a matching kernel module (cifs.ko) or use a rom with explicit CIFS support.

"mounting <yourshare> on <yourmountpoint> failed: No such file or directory"

A: Your "Mount Point" simply does not exist and CifsManager is not able to automatically create it for you. As automatic Mount Point creation is not done with su rights, CifsManager can only create Mount Points in directories with permissions 777 or on your SD-Card.

Q: I mounted my favorite share successfully but files with special characters are not displayed correctly.

A: Try to use a kernel with explicit UTF-8 support or try to find/load the kernel module nls_utf8.ko via a simple init script.
[Android Apps and Games] ULJ:
Just installed the CIFS module to my ROM, and not CifsManager is working perfectly. Thanks! :D
[Android Apps and Games] Daelyn:
I think I have found a bug, or it's just my ROM that's messed up.

Installing and using CifsManager just fine on both OpenDesire 4.0.23, 4.0.24 and 4.0.25.

But, the problem is opening the application. I use the stock android launcher. Opening the drawer and

clicking on CifsManager: "Application not installed on your phone".

I can start the application by opening application via Market, via Settings/Applications or via TitaniumBackup.

Has happened on three separate and clean installs without restores, although almost identical ROM versions. This is the only application I ever got this problem with. I feel a bit puzzled/stupid to be honest :/

[Android Apps and Games] f3d0r:
Most probably you have wrong permissions on /mnt/cifs

If you want to see the contents of this folder in Astro or ES you have to grant "Others" the permission Read and Execute. If you want CifsManager to auto-create MountPoints in /mnt/cifs you also have to grant the Write permission.

So in a shell you can try to issue the following command:

chmod 777 /mnt/cifs

This is the vanilla kernel from the update with just the root. I want to mount shares from my home/office with windows xp/win 7 computers. I have download the cifs manager but keep getting the "no such device" error. Reading the other posts on this forums it seems that the vanilla kernel does not have cifs support. I tried downloading the cifs.ko and the nls_utf8.ko from one of the threads here. I saved it on my sdcard and tried to initalize it from adb shell but keep getting an error

# insmod /sdcard/cifs/cifs.ko
insmod /sdcard/cifs/cifs.ko
insmod: init_module '/sdcard/cifs/cifs.ko' failed (Exec format error)

So here are my questions

Is it possible to get the mounting to work on my current kernel doing a few tricks??

If not what kernel out there can I use to accomplish this without changing the look and feel of the stock kernel?

Can't mount share

Hi all.

I'm trying to get a share to mount. I've gone through all the troubleshooting I can think of. I'm getting the 'no such file or directory' error. So far I have done the following.

-I can access the share via Astro smb so I know the name/pwd is correct

-I've chmod'd the /mnt/cifs and /mnt/cifs/share folders. ('share' is my mount point)

-I've run the app with and without SU permissions

I can't remember while writing this the other advice but I've spent a good while trying other solutions in this thread. Am I just being stupid and missed something obvious.

Cheers
