Re: "file already exists" on non-existant files

Please post a full log file showing the problem.

To generate log file, enable logging, log in to your server and do the operation and only the operation that causes the error. For posting extensive logs you may use pastebin or similar application. Note that passwords and passphrases not stored in the log. You may want to remove other data you consider sensitive though, such as host names, IP addresses, account names or file names (unless they are relevant to the problem). If you do not want to post the log publicly, you may email it to me. You will find my address (if you log in) in my forum profile. Please include link back to this topic in your email. Also note in this topic that you have emailed the log.

"file already exists" on non-existant files

Since updating to 4.2.2 I am getting "file already exists" dialogs, although the file doesn't exist at all. It shows of size of 0 and a date in 1899.

It happens with a test system I am reinstalling very often (it's a VMware) with files I always copy to the /root folder after a fresh installation. Feels a bit like a caching issue to me.

I also had a problem, that a remote folder was treated like a symbolic link, which wasn't a link at all on that system, but on a different one I was accessing earlier.
