I added a file to a shared directory in Windows 7. When I ls -l that directory in Ubuntu 11 it looks like: (2nd line)
ls: cannot access item_spec.rb: No such file or directory
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 300 2012-01-11 12:05 user_spec.rb
-????????? ? ? ? ? ? item_spec.rb
How can I get the folder to "refresh"? I need to use this file in Ubuntu. I think it will be present if I restart the VM, but that seems excessive. This looks like a bug. I asked this question on the VMWare forums and haven't gotten a response.
Output of ls -l for parent:
drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8192 2012-01-13 13:26 the_project
