- Subject: ls: reading directory /cygdrive/c: No such file or directory
Hi there!
Some time ago my rsync-backup-scripts stopped working and there is
really a weird issue that I could not solve using Google and the mailing
list archive. Look at the following:
bash-3.2$ ls /
bin cygdrive ... works
bash-3.2$ ls /cygdrive/c
ls: reading directory /cygdrive/c: No such file or directory
bash-3.2$ cd /cygdrive/c
bash-3.2$ ls
ls: reading directory .: No such file or directory
bash-3.2$ cd temp
bash-3.2$ ls
... works ...
Why can't I list some directories inside /cygdrive/c, but others work fine?
Any ideas?
Here is my output of cygcheck -s:
