Failed to Mount an NFS File System to a Windows IIS Server¶
Symptom¶
When an NFS file system is mounted to a Windows IIS server, an error message is displayed, indicating that the path format is not supported, and the mounting fails.
Possible Causes¶
The physical path of the IIS Web server is incorrect.
Fault Diagnosis¶
Take troubleshooting measures based on possible causes.
Solution¶
Log in to the ECS. An ECS running Windows Server 2012 R2 is used in this example.
Click Server Manager in the lower left corner.
Choose Tools > Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager, expand Sites, and select the target website.
Click Basic Settings to check whether the Physical path is correct.
The correct physical path is that of the mount point with the colon (:) deleted.
Figure 1 shows the mount point of a file system. You need to enter the physical path \\sfs-nas1.XXXXXXXXX.com\share-396876e8, as shown in Figure 2.
