We have a problem with a managed file transfer program. We have been using it for years without a problem, but now it has a few specific projects that are unable to overwrite specific filenames. It's on Centos, the base OS (uname -r 3.10.0-957.10.1.el7.x86_64) is XFS filesystem, the place where the writes are failing is mounted as CIFS. In /etc/fstab the failing spot is mounted with vers=3.0 for SMB.



The puzzling thing is that there are hundreds of identical projects (and on the same filesystems) but only a few doing this. It cannot write this one specific file, either by root or the normal process. From within the directory where it's supposed to be:



touch BAD_FILENAME.TXT
touch: cannot touch ‘BAD_FILENAME.TXT’: No such file or directory


I can create one elsewhere in the filesystem and trying to cp it to that location, gets the same error. Looking through the application's logs show the same error. Permissions are all rwx (as are other files in that dir), owner of the file is root.



In the past, during a maintenance window, a reboot seemed to fix it. In our last maintenance windows, I first ended the services on the application (FTP/FTPS/SFTP/HTTPS) and then I could manually overwrite it from the command line. This tells me the application is keeping a lock there. It is the same user(s) and the same project that repeatedly have the problem.



Suggestions?
