Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/issues/719

Additional Information

Version of s3fs being used (s3fs --version)

1.80

Version of fuse being used (pkg-config --modversion fuse)

Package fuse was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `fuse.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'fuse' found

(Dunno why this happens, mounting the filesystem works though)

System information (uname -r)

4.9.0-5-amd64

Distro (cat /etc/issue)

Debian GNU/Linux 9

s3fs command line used (if applicable)

s3fs myspacename /home/storage/bulk -o uid=1001,gid=1001,umask=077 -ourl=https://nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com

Details about issue

I have a DigitalOcean Space that I want to move a bunch of files to. After mounting the space with the above command and attempting to move the files like this:

mv files/ /home/storage/bulk/

I get a bunch of error messages like this:

mv: error writing 'bulk/files/file1.zip': Operation not permitted
mv: failed to close 'bulk/files/file1.zip': Operation not permitted

In total, the files occupy about 21 GB and are about 1 GB each. Not sure if that's important, but there you go.

I've read that S3 expects certain headers or whatnot, but I have no clue what that means or how setting headers on files would even work. Help would be appreciated.

Actually, scratch all that. Using Spaces for a bunch of large files was a dumb idea to begin with.
