When trying to "Mount Object" in WebAdmin from "File System Access", it reports "Cannot create FUSE mount point".
Issue cause
To mount the Axigen storage in a virtual file system, you need to have the Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) installed and configured to work with Axigen, and the directory where the Axigen filesystem will be mounted prepared.
Solution
- Ensure you have Filesystem in Userspace (FUSE) installed
- For RPM based distros:
yum install fuse - For DEB based distros:
apt-get install fuse
- For RPM based distros:
- Test the installed package with the following commands:
fusermount --version The output should be similar to:
fusermount version: 2.9.2 Note: If you receive any error when executing this command, you should consider re-installing the fuse package.
and the command:
modprobe fuse Note: You shouldn't get any output if module is successfully loaded.
- Configure FUSE to let non-privileged users create their own file system.
Your /etc/fuse.conf should be similar to: # Set the maximum number of FUSE mounts allowed to non-root users.
# The default is 1000.
#
# mount_max = 1000
# Allow non-root users to specify the 'allow_other' or 'allow_root'
# mount options.
#
user_allow_other
Note: if this file doesn't exist, please create it.
Important! After 'user_allow_other' you *must* have an empty line
- Check and fix possible misconfigured permissions issue using the following commands in terminal (as root): chmod 744 /etc/fuse.conf
chmod 1666 /dev/fuse
chmod o+x /bin/fusermount
chmod o+x /opt/axigen/lib/libfuse.so - Prepare the directory where the Axigen filesystem will be mounted (for example /mnt/axigen): mkdir -p /mnt/axigen
chmod -R 770 /mnt/axigen/
chown axigen:axigen /mnt/axigen
