Path Too Deep Error Message
April 10th, 2007 Alex Posted in Uncategorized | Comments Off
Update: it could also be that you have too many sub-directories. For example, move a file located at: X:\dir1\dir2\dir3\dir4\file.ext to X:\dir1\file.ext. Where X would possibly be a network share mounted as a drive (a software limit).
It seems to be a generic hardware failure error message. Here is a “summary” of what I found (Mostly from this website). I found out my problem to be with my wireless network which had too many bad packets, but there seem to be many possible causes. Jump to the solutions.
Disclaimer: I didn’t try all possible solutions, some may not work or may break something.. be careful with what you modify..!
Here are some error messages that also seem to be related to the same problem:
* “Cannot copy: Path is too deep.”
* “File creation error – The semaphore timeout period has expired.”
* “The network path is no longer valid”
* “The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error”
* “The specified name is no longer available”
* MAC ERROR “The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in \ could not be read or written.”
* “Windows was unable to save all the data for the file drive:\\directory. The data has been lost. this error may be caused by a failure of your computer hardware or network connection. Please try to save this file elsewhere.”
Possible Solutions
Most Popular Solutions:
* Changed duplex settings from auto to full (100 or 10 depending on network settings) and now everything works just fine – >Go to DEVICE MANAGER, then NETWORK ADAPTER, right click go to PROPERTIES, go to the ADVANCED tab, then SPEED AND DUPLEX, change this setting from auto to either 10MB Full or 100MB Full (depending on your network).
* I swapped USB ports – sorted!
* I found that unregistering MS’s AVI preview dll (shmedia.dll; see http://www.tweakxp.com/tweak2123.aspx, http://www.tweakxp.com/article36849.aspx) (which tries to preview / read tech data for all avi files, regardless if they’re 700MB +) fixed it.
* Sysadmins found network card on original server was dropping connections every 5 minutes or so
* Robocopy (Robust Copy) or TotalCopy from nethorror-> it is more persistent, and is more forgiving of timeouts and doesn’t throw in the towel after a few retries
* Connection speed to this PC to 10 MBit (from 100MBit)
* Revert your network adapter’s driver to an earlier driver version or update to the newest one
* The original IDE cable was longer (36″) than the specs. allowed (18″). I replaced the one cable with two 18″cables and made both drives masters
* using http://support.microsoft.com/?id=328890 and setting TcpAckFrequency to 1 has resolved the problem completely.
* simply exchanged the USB cable with one I got with a digital projector and it is working fine
* Make sure your USB thumb-drive or hard-drive is plugged in and enabled before you begin. 1. Right-click “My Computer” and select “Manage” 2. Select “Device Manager” 3. Expand “Disk Drives” 4. Right-click the usb drive (e.g “Sandisk Cruzer Micro USB Device” and select “Properties” 5. Click the “Policies” tab 6. Select “Optimize for performance” 7. Select “OK” 8: Reboot your computer.
Other Solutions
* After adding my 1st and 2nd DNS servers the issues are no longer present.
* DISABLE WINDOWS FIREWALL then try to start the transfer
* I replace the network environment by a regular CAT5 cross cable the network graph will still not look as pretty as but it WILL succeed
* we swapped to the internal LAN port at 100mbps and the very repeatable problem has gone away
* PC contained Trojan.cachecachekit which is dropped by the W32.Spybot.NLX virus.After we removed the PC from the network, things seemed to be o
* Since copying to the internal worked great I just formatted the card to fat32 (to same FS)
* CHKDSK [C:\ CHKDSK X: /f /r] and then I the XCOPY command [XCOPY C:\music X:\ /s]
* I zipped the directory and files I was trying to copy when receiving this error and the zip file did copy.
* turn OFF the Microsoft Network (both Client and Server) options to digitally sign communications
* To turn off the options, start up “Local Security Policy” (under “Administrative Tools” – which, if you cannot find it anywhere else, will be located in the Control Panel). Select “Local Policies,” then “Security Options.” Set all of the following options to “Disabled”:
1. – o Microsoft network client: Digitally sign communications (always);
2. – o Microsoft network client: Digitally sign communications (if server agrees);
3. – o Microsoft network server: Digitally sign communications (always);
4. – o Microsoft network server: Digitally sign communications (if client agrees). THEN REBOOT
* Disable Microsoft QOS
* right click your network adapter. Go to the Advanced tab. Find IEEE802.1P support and disable it
* updated the IOS on both VPNs and everything and everyone is happy again
* Just recently started having problems with “path too deep” and failed copying to the server. Pulled the switch (and it’s cable) and now no problems
* I removed the Promise card and placed both drives on the IDE connectors on my mother board.
* I powered down my wireless network (Linksys 802.11b), powered down my 3 PCs (all running fully updated XP Home) and rebooted everything
* did a repair on w2k3 and file sharing/copying worked fine, reloaded MB drivers and the windows updates
* Solution: compressed it (RAR) on local drive and uncompressed from local to external drive!
* Answer: the zip file was corrupt. I deleted it, copied it onto the USB drive again, and then copied it to XP – no problemo.
* I resolved my problem by changing the IDE cable on my hard drive
* I changed the network cables to the Win98 machine, problem gone.
* remove all hardware/cards not needed to install
* ISP replaced the modem with a newer model
* unplug the drive and plug it into another USB port (back of computer?)
* changing the IP worked for me (Network setup was for static, and computer was set to automatically)
* Changed the network card and fixed problem
* formatted the USB drive using NTFS and all problems went away
* wiped XP and went back to Windows 98. Works like a dream.
* Secure Copy, Xcopy
* turned off authentication on the network adapter and changed all servers to auto-negotiate.
* disabled the flow control
* changing the Wins settings on my server to the right one
* Moved files to another existing directory on same drive, then to other drive. Zipped right over without a hitch.
* Setting both network adapters to the same link speed/duplex mode instead of “auto” did the trick.
* My problem with an SD memory card is now resolved. I exchanged the card for a new one and it worked OK.
* I unplugged the hub and plugged it back in and everything is fine now even at auto
* After 1/2 day I tried another network cable, and guess what. That did the trick.
* It turned out to be a bad connection/cabling in my HD removable tray that now and than caused the error. Mounted the HD permanently and the prob was gone.
* temp: If I copy direct to the root of that drive then move the files to the folder I need them to be in.
* Article 983184 at MSDN Forum
* One interesting thing I found out while testing was that the error only occurs when I’m connecting the hard drive using USB 2.0. If I connect to the Ext. HDD using firewire, there’s no “path too deep” error. If I connect to one of my old USB 1.1 ports, there’s also no problem (slow, but no problem).
* Try mapping the drive from the win 2k machine rather than vice versa and dragging the files from the 2k box.
* Tcpip.sys hotfix KB884020 Article 884020 at MS Support
* 1) Open a command window (Start->Run, type in ‘cmd’ hit enter) 2) To remove image preview, type and hit enter regsvr32 /u shimgvw.dll 3) To read image preview, type and hit enter regsvr32 shimgvw.dll 4) To remove media preview, type and hit enter regsvr32 /u shmedia.dll5) To read media preview, type and hit enter regsvr32 shmedia.dll
* Go into device manager and remove / uninstall the offending item. reboot with the item connected and let it rediscover and load it. sometimes I have to do this 2 or 3 times to get it to work.
* Sometimes if I just uninstall and reinstall it will work.
* sometimes plugging it in to a different port will work.
* sometimes disconnecting it and reconnecting it will work.
Temp. Solutions (If all else fails)
* xcopy in a command prompt seems to work fine
* Copying from A machine to B machine generated that error. Pulling the file from A to B from B machine was OK.
* I just tried connecting to the Win2K server, mapping to the Win2K3 server from there, and copying the file that way, and it worked without this error.
* Log to the other server and moved the files from there
When can you get this error message ?
* The most common event causing this error seems to be when you are copying large files over a network (small files usually copy fine) or when trying to copy from an internal hard-drive to a
USB device (another HD, mp3 player, flash drive, etc..).
* Sometimes even a small file is causing the error
* Copy from computer #1 to computer #2 gives the error but can copy without any problem from computer #2 to computer #1.
* If on a second computer I continuously ping the wireless computer even during the exact times the errors occur, I never get a timeout, and never get anything other than normal ping times.
* The wireless connection when trying to copy large files works about 1 in 3 times according to some
* Copy to external PCIMI network card with 8139 Chip Module (to try: upgrade driver)
* Copy from one internal HD to another (no network involved) and the cables are new
* Wireless or Ethernet – connected to the office LAN over PPTP VPN, I can’t copy even a 10 K file.
* Copy files to Server 2000 server and Server 2003 servers from XP machines
* From USB drive to a folder
* Accessing a 2-gig USB hard drive. I have tried it on 2 different computers and I get a semaphore timeout.
* Backup SCSI HDD onto the primary IDE disk.
* SCSI HDD to the primary IDE HDD
* From a removable bay drive to a new 160gb drive
* I changed the wired hub to a 100Mb switch
* My path is no longer than 30 characters long. That goes for each file. Each file ranges between 4G to 14G
* PCMCIA adaptor Not working, USB OK
* two machines are looking at the same network share, and user A creates a file in that share, but user B can’t see it until they refresh the folder. Try to copy between these folders, and the “Path too deep” error occurs
Possible Causes
* copy from NTFS to FAT32
* Also every time explorer would hang if i disconnected failing drive’s usb cable it would come right back instantly under control then i’d try again with same problem coming back after a few seconds of transfer.
* the network trunking connecting the site switches was at fault
* The problem definitely seems to be network related but only triggered using certain files.
* can rule out any bad computer IO because this will happen from- and to various different PC’s
* The failing save showed TCP Checksum errors. Also reported SMB errors, which would be expected it there are errors lower in the stack.
* I swapped it for an 80 conductor cable, and the DMA mode bumped up to Mode 5 (had old 40 conductor and DMA Mode 2)
* hardware failure, corrupted data or too slow connection
* If you ignore, move past the currently offending file, or other some such, the next copy operation seems to happen without a sneeze
* chkdsk /f/r The disk does not have enough space to replace bad clusters detected in file 38 of name . OR An Unspecified error occurred.
* Yeah, it was the IDE cable for me, or else the Promise IDE card.
* Replaced the Linksys Wireless router with an old DLink and it works fine.
* Bad HD Cable
* Bad Network cable
* *occurred with a large file copy (linux-kernel.tar 125MB) *does not occur with a tiny 1k file.
* It’s your network. Update your drivers, etc. Could be router issues too but less likely.
* It’s your network layer. Think about it…did you ever get it copying within your own HD?
* Make sure all your BIOS’es are up to date, make sure the HDDs do not have bad sectors on them.
* changes on the network |
