NFS share mounting problem

[Creaky]

I am trying to mount a NFS share from a QNAP nas to a new install of Ubuntu Server but running in to issues

 

I have created a new share on the QNAP called nextcloud

 

When I attempt to mount the share on the Ubuntu VM with the following command I get an access denied error

 

Mount command - 192.168.1.3:/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/nextcloud /mnt/qnapnas

Error - mount.nfs: access denied by server while mounting 192.168.1.3:/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/nextcloud /mnt/qnapnas

 

Running showmount -e shows the share as available

 

I have created the /mnt/qnapnas folder and given my self full ownership of the folder

 

Not sure what else to check, fairly new to this.

So...based on my experiences with QNAP NAS devices, when you created the nextcloud folder on your QNAP NAS, did you create it as admin or did you create it as guest?

 

My suspicion is that it has to do with your read/write permissions and who owns that folder.

 

One way that you might be able to do it is if you created that folder under the admin account when you logged into the NAS unit, you might have to delete the folder and then log in as guest (if you want passwordless access to that folder, and create it again). But it might not let you because /share/CACHEDEV1_DATA might not have the permissions that you need to be able to create that folder there.

 

The other option would be to create the folder as admin, and then change the owner and the group to someone else.

 

You'll also want to check that you have connectivity to the QNAP NAS unit as well.

 

Hope that helps.

 

Thanks.

Can you try turning on root_squash for the export?
