Summary | 0001237: the project file is not saved when the " /tmp " directory is full, but the user is not aware of it | ||||
Description | How to reproduce: * Open freecad, create something in it. * Make sure your partition, where /tmp folder is, is full (no disk space left) * Save your freecad project in another disk (for example, /home/username) Now what will happen: If you pay attention, and can read really really fast, you might be able to see a message appearing, for a very short period of time, in the bottom left corner of freecad. This message, in red letters, will say something like "Couldn't write in folder /tmp/SOMETHING" . But... The asterisk ( * ) in the project's tab will be gone, and a file will be saved in /home/username, ( 7kb instead of 30+kb ) The problem: If the user misses the red letter message, he will be under the impression that the project was saved properly. But when he opens that .fcstd file he will realise that there is nothing in it, and he was just wasting his time. | ||||
Additional Information | I am using Freecad version 0.12.5284 under Mageia Linux. I had similar problems with the newer unstable versions, running in Wine. | ||||

The messages are also written to the report window which you can activate under the View menu. Then please try again and post the exact error messages. This way we know where in the source code the writing failed. Unfortunately, when the writing somewhere fails it's not clear what is the reason. So, there can also be other reasons than a full HD. Maybe we can use the C header errno.h to see what happened. But it's true that at the end the user needs a clear feedback that something went wrong, like a pop-up dialog. |

This is the error message, in the Report view window ---------------------- Pick center point: Pick radius: Shape of 'Box' cannot be written to BRep file '/tmp//fileUOdtEi' Shape of 'Polygon' cannot be written to BRep file '/tmp//fileUOdtEi' Shape of 'Sketch' cannot be written to BRep file '/tmp//fileUOdtEi' ---------------------- In this specific case, it must be that the partition is full, because the problem only shows up when the partition is full. (Note:The partition is not literally full. There is still space left. But it is kept for root use. So that the system won't freeze, loose data, or anything like that, because a user tried to fill the /tmp directory.) |
