Hi!
I searched for the reason why I couldn't import files sent by Samba from my Mac anymore. Long time i believed it was a bug coming from Papermerge code - but it looked like no one else had this issue. Then I believed it was a file permission error. Both wrong!
It were the dot files coming from macOS. like ._DS_Store or similar:
After deleting these files in my import dir, the import job worked flawless! I searched for an easy fix on my side and found it:
add to your samba config on your server (/etc/samba/smb.conf) following line:
*veto files = /._/.DS_Store/**
I've added this to my OMV server inside the share directly under advanced options:
after restarting the samba service, these files are history on your next file transfers using samba :)
It would be great if you could implement an ignore function on the import dir, based on above logic for these files please?!?
Thanks alot
