Systemctl enable storage-movies.mount fails

Help & Support Installation & Booting

Hi,
I am failing to mount cifs using this command:
systemctl enable storage-movies.mount

Why CE fails to mount CIFS?
Thank you,

I have a cifs mount setup on all of my boxes, and it works fine.
It’s likely you have something configured incorrectly in your .mount file.

Can you please send a copy of your .mount file (remove any identifying data)?

Here are my confirgs
File name: storage-music.mount
File directory: ~/.config/system.d
.mount config (without the # comments):

[Unit]
Description=test cifs mount script
Requires=network-online.service
After=network-online.service
Before=kodi.service

[Mount]
What=//192.168.100.66/Music

Where we want mount this share

Where=/storage/music

Options=username=MyName,password=MyPassword

filesystem type

Type=cifs

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

The file name storage-music.mount matches to the path at /storage/music

I can mount manually using the following command:
mount -t cifs -o username=MyName,password=MyPassowrd,vers=2.1 //192.168.100.66/Music /storage/music

Thanks,

Mine is very similar, so maybe it’s just a SMB version issue with your ‘server’.
Why don’t you try adding ,vers=2.1 to the Options parameter and see if that works.

I did add, and is doesn’t work. I had to run a script on startup to mount using the command line.
