-8084 Errors on some files

Postby boomhaueruk » Sun May 13, 2012 9:25 am

Hi,

I've purchased a DS212j, and, after a lot of messing around and random reboots (which Synology have given me a ptach for), I've managed to move 1.8tb of files from an NTFS formatted external hard drive to my DS212j.
Normally I used HFS, as all my machines are Macs, but obviously I had to buy Paragon NTFS, format an external hard drive, copy all the files from my existing external USB and plug that into the DS212J to move them over. Painful, not helped by the reboots, but we're there.

Except now about half the files, when I try to move or copy them from the DS212j through OSX, give me -8084 errors.

Now, that code usually refers to characters, apparently.

Which would make sense, except that, if I attach the original hard drive to the mac, everything moves.

Am I right in thinking this is probably to do with the whole debacle with NTFS?

If so, goodbye DS212j, I need a device that in supports HFS.

But any ideas?

I am running into a similar issue, but have not done anything with NTFS. I have a DiskStation 1511+ running 4.0-2228.

I am using a Mac and keep my iTunes Library on my DiskStation. iTunes automatically sorts the library and has created several files that have special characters in them (accented e's for example.). I have noticed that iTunes shows those files as missing. I tried copying the entire library off to a HFS+ drive, but I get at the -8084 errors in the Finder. Rsync with --ignore-errors let me copy my library off to a portable drive, but I got errors on all the files with special characters showing "file vanished." If I ssh into the DiskStation and mv them from the command line, it works, but it creates extra characters the first time and I have to do it twice to get the name right. This makes me think it's a DSM issue.

I have not noticed this before, but I haven't tried to copy my library off either, so I'm not sure if this is a recently introduced problem or one that has always existed that I have had the luck of not running into. However, I was able to use rsync to get these files onto the DiskStation so it was at least working then in a linux <-> linux environment when I first set the DiskStation up last summer.

I'm assuming others have seen this, but does anyone have a solution? Is there a way to get a DiskStation to correctly handle these special characters?
