Constantly getting "The Parameter is incorrect" error

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Successfully connect to a Linux server running SSH using SSHFS for
Windows Vista, running as a normal Linux user.
2. Try to browse around various folders for a while. Also try to perform
more than one or two operations in a folder (new folder, whatever)
3. Get the error message "<foldername> is not accessible. The parameter is
incorrect"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: Not getting an error message, ability to do normal folder 
functions (cut,paste,rename, new folder)
Instead: Error message

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Dokan library -- dokan-0.4.2.1238 x86 2008/12/31
Dokan SSHFS --  dokan-sshfs-0.2.0.1226 2008/12/11

Running Vista Home Premium. Linux server is running Ubuntu 8.10.

Please provide any additional information below.

Like I said I'm connecting to the Linux box as a normal Linux user (because
"root" failed to work). Dunno if that's related.

I'd also point out that DokanSSHFS *will* work of a while sometimes, but it 
never
seems to last. I always have to end up unmounting the drive and remounting it 
at some
point.

I've uploaded a quick example of this on YouTube. (Link may not work for a few
minutes, YouTube is currently processing it)

I also encountered the same issue.
Look like when browsing folders with many files or clicking too fast on many 
folders,
Dokan couldn't finish all the threads on queue and caused the error?
Please fix it in the next release. Thanks a lot.

I have the same problem when attempting to use Rubymine to link to a decently 
sized
directory.  It seems that Rubymine does something to totally crap out the 
SSHFS.  It
could be related to the speed in which the files are accessed..

I have the same problem on one server (debian 5) SSH version Version: 1:5.1p1-5.
But all seems to work on a other server (Centos) SSH version 
openssh-server.x86_64
4.3p2-29.el5. Hope this can help someone to find the problem and to fix it.

More detail:
I am running windows 7 (32 bit)
Installed the software in compatibilty mode.

i have a similar problem as dokan is timing out after sometime and any normal 
window 
operations says drive error and i have to remount everything inclusing a 
computer

Any luck with this anybody? This issue renders the software inoperable. I can do
somewhere between 2-10 clicks before it stops working (I'm just talking about
browsing file system). Then all I can get is "The parameter is incorrect". The 
my
directories are very small (up to 30 items)

Tried to browse a Big video file (17Go) with vlc...
I get the same error a lot of times (incorrect parameter after browsing 
folder)... :(
juste after browsing 30 seconds ..
After remounting it 4-5 times it seems to work now.
Actually, if i launch vlc , remount sshfs, then click on the play button with 
vlc. vlc 
bufferizes and seems to work. So i think it is the folder browsing that makes 
some s**t 
on the process.

I'm having the same issue (compiled everything from trunk on winxp 32bit)

I tested it using the mirror and trying to save some text to a file using 
notepad
(and got this popup)

No resolution? I actually consider this a critical issue.

Any news ? Seems to be still an issue with 0.5.3.
It's seems like to be related with big file though, as I get the problem only 
for files > 2GiB.

Seems like a problem in mirror.c. Patch attached.

Thanks rpelagalli - not entirely sure how to compile the patch into a binary 
though

mirror.c is just a example-implementation.. so that can't be a solution IMHO.

But I can provide some debug-info. This effect happens always right after this 
'problem': 
Any Hint out there?

System.IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was out of Range.

I use to have exactly the same problem while using sshfs 0.2. Then I replaced 
the .exe and Net.dll with the respective files from 0.6 version and everything 
is fine. I don't have any clue on how it has solved the problem though.

I just followed this:

"Dokan SSHFS
dokan-sshfs-0.6.0 2010/01/12
This package doesn’t include installer and Explorer extensions which add 
context menu to Dokan drive and permission setting dialog. If you want to 
support those features, please install dokan-sshfs-0.2.0.1226 and overwrite 
DokanNet.dll and DokanSSHFS.exe files by dokan-sshfs-0.6.0."

I hope it can help others aswell.
