mogilefs newbie help

[Robert Rogers]

Mark,

First you rule for answering so quick.

Second, no, I hadn't created the /var/mogdata/devN dirs just /var/mogdata (and it's owned by mogile who runs mogilefsd)  

However,  I just created /dev1 - /dev3  (which is how many devices i have in localhost:db) mogilefs  still shows the same errror:

system error: Unable to create file (error = Invalid argument, path = /var/mogdata//dev3/0/000/000, file = 0000000058.fid, fd = -1 (Error obtaining link inf\
o: No such file or directory))

On the other hand,  if I create the entire path: /var/mogdata//dev3/0/000/000, then all works perfectly.  But, I'm thinking I should have to do this.  

Thanks for your help.

-Rob
