I'm not able to run any fs mount

net use X: \\memfs64\share 

System error 67 occured 
Network name was not found

Diag output attached below

Any idea what's going wrong?

From your diag output it looks like the service is properly installed.


At the same time it shows that the WinFsp driver was never started and it is not clear why. Can you please do the following from the command line:

 

  • Change into the WinFsp bin directory (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\WinFsp\bin)
  • Run the command `memfs-x64.exe -m X:` and report the output.

Hello Bill,

Do have the memfs-x64.exe i needed to install the Developer tools as well (which are not installed by default)

Running: ".\memfs-x64.exe -m X:" gives

memfs -t -1 -n 1024 -s 16777216 -m X:
The service memfs has been started.

... and waits ...

diag.txt  attached, Drivers seems to be started and memfs is provided ...

After this was done, also doing  "net use Z: \\memfs64\test" works ...

... rebooted ...

Now 'net use Z: \\memfs64\test' still works after reboot -> it seems adding 'Developer' has changed something in the system 


Unfortunately sshfs still does not work, SSHFS-Win Manager shows:

Hello again,

after replacing the winfsp-x64.dll file in 'C:\Program Files\SSHFS-Win\bin' with the one from 'C:\Program Files (x86)\WinFsp\bin' this works as well ...

If you want me to try something, let me know. Happy to help.

The MEMFS file system is part of the “developer tools”. This explains why `net use` was not working earlier and it is working now after you installed the “developer tools”.

 

Regarding sshfs-win and SSHFS-Win Manager: this may be a problem with SSHFS-Win Manager as I have had some other reports about this problem. Does sshfs-win work on its own? Try mapping a network drive to \\sshfs\p...@192.168.2.110

1.       Change into the WinFsp bin directory (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\WinFsp\bin)

2.       Run the command `memfs-x64.exe -m X:` and report the output.

Interesting. There should not be a winfsp-x64.dll file in the C:\Program Files\SSHFS-Win\bin directory.
