We write files from our applications to the web server through an NFS mount. Although this does work, we have had issues with it and see many errors in the system logs. I'm looking for a better solution. Do others do this? If so, do you use NFS successfully, FTP, other solutions?

It is mostly OK, but we sometimes "lose" the mount. It looks to me like it times out after a period of inactivity or something. Doing an "ls" on the mounted volume or looking at it in Finder seems to restore it. Looking at it from a WO app does not have the same restorative effect. I don't know why. Recently, I added code to run a shell doing an ls command if the WO app got an IO error. Hacky yes, but no errors since then. It has not been long enough that I am sure it is working. AFP is another option, but is slower than NFS, there might be other issues too.
We had to do something similar too (in that case, it was SMB shares). I made a very small Nagios plugin that was doing a ls on the share everything 5 minutes. Those were the 10.4 days when the automount stuff was a bitch. _______________________________________________
