Thanks for the try. This is pretty strange since your mount path looks simple and VFS file: provider is not doing much besides using normal Java API to access the filesystem. so this looks more like a Java/fuse/gcs-fuse problem.
Can you try File f = new File("/tmp/gcs"); Systen,out.println("f exists" + f.exists() + " is dir " + f.isDirectory() + " is file " + f.isFile() + " norm " + f.getCanonicalPath() + " len " + f.length()) So we can see what the responses are? Gruss Bernd
