| 275814941 | MDU6SXNzdWUyNzU4MTQ5NDE= | 141 | datasette publish can fail if /tmp is on a different device | 21148 | closed | 0 | 2949431 | 5 | 2017-11-21T18:28:05Z | 2020-04-29T03:27:54Z | 2017-12-08T16:06:36Z | CONTRIBUTOR | `datasette publish` uses hard links to avoid copying the db into a tmp directory. This can fail if `/tmp` is on another device, because hardlinks can't cross devices. You'll see something like this: ``` $ datasette publish heroku whatever.db ... OSError: [Errno 18] Invalid cross-device link: '/mnt/c/Users/jacob/c/datasette/whatever.db' -> '/tmp/tmpvxq2yof6/whatever.db' ``` [In my case this is failing because I'm on a Windows machine, using WSL, so my code's on a different virtual filesystem from the Linux subsystem, Because Reasons.] I'm not sure if it's possible to detect this (can you figure out which device `/tmp` is on?), or what the fallback should be (soft link? copy?). | 107914493 | issue | {"url": "https://api.github.com/repos/simonw/datasette/issues/141/reactions", "total_count": 0, "+1": 0, "-1": 0, "laugh": 0, "hooray": 0, "confused": 0, "heart": 0, "rocket": 0, "eyes": 0} | completed |
