I'm using ubuntu 14.04 LTS. When I start my pc and click on any bookmark from the file manager it shows this error:

Unable to find the requested file. Please check the spelling and try again.

Unhandled error message: Error when getting information for file '/media/angel/DOC/edu': No such file or directory

But when I open DOC drive and again clink on the same bookmark it works properly. Can anybody tell me why is this happening and how to solve this issue?

Edit: Output of lsblk is following: (ubuntu is installed in sda5)

After opening the disk drive the output of lsblk is bellow:

The output of sudo blkid gives the following information about sdb6:

/dev/sdb6: LABEL="DOC" UUID="04280A22280A12FA" TYPE="ntfs"

From the output of lsblk, before and after the link starts working, it appears that your partition is not mounted automatically.

Since it is an NTFS partition (looking at the output of sudo blkid), you can make your partition automount by adding the following line to your fstab file:

/dev/sdb6 /media/angel/DOC ntfs auto

• 
  

  If it does not exist already, create the directory to mount into:

  
  
  

  sudo mkdir /media/angel/DOC
  
  

  
  


• 
  

  Open the fstab file:

  
  
  

  gksu gedit /etc/fstab
  
  

  
  
  

  (you might have to install gksu first)

  
  
  

  and add the line:

  
  
  

  /dev/sdb6 /media/angel/DOC ntfs auto
  
  

  
  
  

  at the end of the file, save the changes.

  Test your new entry by the command:

  
  
  

  sudo mount -a
  
  

  
  

I had to struggle with the same problem. It was due to an missing entry in the fstab file.

Lets say the bookmark is in folder /dev/sda1/bookmark. Then the bookmark only worked when I first opened the folder /dev/sda1 with the Explorer Window.

After a restart the command lsblk -f showed that /dev/sda1 was not mounted, without mountpoint.

Accessing /dev/sda1 in the Explorer Window and retype the command lsblk -f it appeared with its mountpoint on /media/user/sda1.

After some time I percepted that an entry in the fstab file was missing.

sudo gedit /etc/fstab

I put the following line into fstab file:

/dev/sda1   /media/user/sda1  ntfs  rw,user,auto    0   2

I used the mountpoint which was defined by the system after accessing /dev/sda1 manually.

Finally it worked after a restart.

I hope it will help for other cases as well.
