Problem:
Opening dired-mode on a directory which starts with '/proj/' give
following error :
dir-locals-read-from-file: Opening input file: No such file or
directory, /proj/.dir-locals.el
After this, the buffer comes out blank.
Pressing 'g' in the buffer displays the dired-mode properly

Thanks for the report, but I cannot reproduce this. I tried:
mkdir -p /proj/foo/bar
touch /proj/foo/bar/qux
emacs -Q
C-x d /proj/foo/bar RET
Please can you give a recipe starting from emacs -Q?

I again installed from emacs from :
-rw-r--r-- 1 vardhan users 51251891 Feb 27 09:17 emacs-24.0.94.tar.gz
And run 'emacs -Q' and got the same message trying to access
/proj/foo/bar
On the machine, '/proj' is a nfs mounted directory .. if it helps you !
I also got following message on trying to open a file:
Directory-local variables error: (file-error "Opening input file" "No
such file or directory" "/proj/.dir-locals.el")
But the file opens without any problem, and the message is only in
*Messages* buffer.
I looked in dired-x , and found variable enable-local-variables .
When i did a (set-variable 'enable-local-variables ()), i stopped
getting
these messages !!
If this doesn't help you in finding the problem,
I can try all the stuff on another machine
Thanx for the great work in developing emacs.

I tried with an nfs-mounted /proj, it still works for me.
Does this only happen with directories literally called "/proj"?

What does
ls -l /proj/.dir-locals.el
say in a shell?
What does
emacs -Q
M-: (dir-locals-find-file "/proj/foo/bar") RET
return?

Yes, this is happening only with directories and files inside the
'/proj/' tree.

Thanx for asking .. suddenly i'm enlightned ...
$ ls -l /proj/.dir-locals.el
ls: /proj/.dir-locals.el: No such file or directory
$ ls -dl /proj/.dir-locals.el
dr-xr-xr-x 2 root root 0 Jan 5 02:33 /proj/.dir-locals.el
To me, it looks like the automount is playing some tricks .. initially
it tells emacs that this exists
and when emacs tries to read it .. it tells that it doesn't exist ... or
something like that ...
And i'm sorry for giving partial info .. /proj is nfs and is auto
mounted..
Here is the strace of calls that emacs is doing ...
stat("/proj/foo/bar/qux/.dir-locals.el", 0x7fff6e27f590) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
stat("/proj/foo/bar/.dir-locals.el", 0x7fff6e27f590) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
stat("/proj/foo/.dir-locals.el", 0x7fff6e27f590) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
stat("/proj/.dir-locals.el", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0555, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
stat("/proj/.dir-locals.el", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0555, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
open("/proj/.dir-locals.el", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
stat("/proj/foo/bar/.dir-locals.el", 0x7fff6e27fb80) = -1 ENOENT (No
such file or directory)
stat("/proj/foo/.dir-locals.el", 0x7fff6e27fb80) = -1 ENOENT (No such
file or directory)
stat("/proj/.dir-locals.el", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0555, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
stat("/proj/.dir-locals.el", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0555, st_size=0, ...}) = 0
open("/proj/.dir-locals.el", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)

I think this behaviour is quirk of automounting. Just for the record,
$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client release 5.6 (Tikanga)
: 15:45:39 : /home/vardhan
$ rpm -qa | grep autofs
autofs-5.0.1-0.rc2.148.bz667273.1.el5
Glenn,
thanx a lot for helping me in finding this.
This is a unique case, where '/proj/' is an automounted directory,
and it's hightly improbable that lot of people will hit it !
It's up to you ... if you think some change can be done in emacs or
dired.el !
Thanx a lot

Is there really a /proj/.dir-locals.el directory (not file)?
(How does it have zero size - what is the file system?)
Can you just delete whatever that is?
It looks to me like your automounter is broken, because the above
sequence ought to be impossible, AIUI.

I don't understand what's going on there, but I made Emacs ignore
.dir-locals.el if it is a directory (or unreadable). I guess that will
fix your issue. But if /proj/.dir-locals.el was a weird file rather than
a weird directory, the same issue would occur. I don't think there would
anything Emacs could do about that.
