Today, Apple released 10.9.2. Unfortunately, however, it does not seem to have resolved the issue of having to key in your mail password repeatedly, as documented here, and on this site.
More importantly, 10.9.2 seems to have introduced a new bug that surfaces during Finder copy from local volumes to remote volumes on Mavericks server 3.0.2. Copies partially fail with error message -36. This new problem was not there with 10.9.1 & Server 3.0.2.
In summary:
- A single file copy fails with Error -36, but the file is actually copied.
- Multi-file copy also fails with Error -36, but the first file is actually copied.
There are no permissions issues locally, or on the server, so this is not a permissions failure. I submitted this bug to Apple (Bug# 16168164).
UPDATE 2/26/2014: Apple released Server 3.0.3. But updating the server, this problem remains.
And here is the console output:
2/26/14 8:19:48.000 AM kernel[0]: smb_ntstatus_error_to_errno: Couldn't map ntstatus (0xc000010c) to errno returning EIO
2/26/14 8:19:48.000 AM kernel[0]: smbfs_set_create_vap: smbfs_setattr, error 5
2/26/14 8:19:48.000 AM kernel[0]: smb_ntstatus_error_to_errno: Couldn't map ntstatus (0xc000010c) to errno returning EIO
UPDATE 2/27/2014: BenPridmore points out Apple forums that the problem can be resolved by turning off the SMB on the server. And indeed it does. Once SMB is off, copy function starts working again. The downside is, now your Windows clients can no longer connect to the server. While we do not have Windows clients here, it is going to be a huge problem for many. In summary, SMB in 10.9.2 + 3.0.3 combination is still broken, now in a different way than before. Insanely bad.
