#318 closed Bug (fixed)

ftruncate file (to extend size) on vfat filesystem

Reported by: Diraison Owned by: charles
Priority: Normal Milestone: 0.90
Component: libtransmission Version: 0.80

Description

vfat ftrunctate doesn't work properly to extend file size with some linux kernels (as 2.6.8.1). The function always returns EPERM errno and Transmission stop the torrent. This problem may be related to Ticket #285 with file creation over samba share.

A solution is to extend file by writing a single byte at the desired end of the file.
