Hi Daniel,

BaseX uses standard Java NIO to move files [1]; see [2] for a more comprehensive documentation.

You could enable debugging, and we could have a look at the full command line output; maybe that gives us some hints what goes wrong here.

Did you try the alternative to copy your files and delete the source afterwards?

Best,

Christian

Hi,

I am able to file:copy() or file:write() a file from a Linux system to a Windows mount (via cifs).
I am not able to file:move() to the same target.

The error says "file:io-error: Die Operation ist nicht erlaubt"

BaseX version is 9.2.1

Is this a bug or a known restriction with moving things around in Java?

Thanks, Daniel
