I've seen a lot of issues with file sharing in Ubuntu 11.1, but no current solutions (I don't see any folders/files in the psf directory.) Funny thing is I also downloaded Fedora 15, and file sharing seems to work with that Linux guest. Any timeline as to when this will be addressed?
Ubuntu 11.1 guest, Par 7, No file sharing

Do you mean Ubuntu 11.10? I have a perfectly functioning Ubuntu 11.10, based on ubuntu-11.10-desktop-amd64.iso. I've attached an image showing my Parallels Shared Folder and my Home dir.
1) Are you on the latest Build of Parallels 7 (7.0.15052)?
2) Check your Parallels Tools Install Log (/var/log/parallels-tools-install.log) for errors
3) Check your Sharing settings: Virtual Machine | Configure... | Sharing

1) Are you on the latest Build of Parallels 7 (7.0.15052)? Yup this is what I'm running.
2) Check your Parallels Tools Install Log (/var/log/parallels-tools-install.log) for errors -- I've attached the log, there are a few errors, but I'm not sure how I go about correcting them.
3) Check your Sharing settings: Virtual Machine | Configure... | Sharing -- I've set up my sharing for the OSX shared folder, but the /media/psf is empty.
Thanks,
John C.

Ok,
After downloading a new Ubuntu 64bit iso and doing a complete reinstall, the sharing now works. The
only thing I can think of was that I originally downloaded the Ubuntu 11.04 from File -> new (Parallels wizard)
and then did and upgrade of it. Maybe that was not a 64bit image? Anyway thanks for the help.
