You need to remove the node created by tfs_fsops_create() in line 1909 at least.

Hi @piste-jp using the following code is enough to remove the node, or do I need to do something else? Thanks

It is a terrible idea to use ltfsmsg within this function because this function is used from ltfsmsg.

Hi @piste-jp your insight would be really helpful here, it is crucial to stop the process and return an error in this section (For example using the goto internal_error) or just printing a message using the fprintf or syslog functions? Thanks
