I am wondering if anyone else using 10.9.5 and openafs has had
problems with files claiming to be damaged when trying to open them
from their afs space in Finder. A file will open the first time and
then fail the second with the file corrupted error. It happened
sporadically until the latest release where it occurred with ease.
OSX creates a resource fork file starting with ._ for files. When we
get this error, deleting the corresponding ._filename.ext from the
Terminal will allow the file to be opened once again from Finder, only
to fail the next time.
The only way I have figured out how to get around this is to switch
the gatekeeper Security preferences for "Allow apps downloaded from:"
to "Anywhere" ( spctl --master-disable ).
Anyone else seeing this? Know why this is occurring?
Thanks,
