System errors

[cburbs]

These started to happen after upgrading to 1.9.

*

My system seems to keep crashing with some of the following errors.

*

Ext 4-fs error (device dm-1) in ext4_da_write_end: IO Failure

*

There are more but is there a log file I can copy them from?

[cburbs]

OK some more input -

(in Cleanup) cannot write to /var/log/squeezboxserver/server.log read only filesystem at usr/share/squeezeboxserver/CPAN/log/log4perl/appender/file.pm line 240

SqueezeBox Server is complaining it doesn't have write permisson to the server.log file.

/var/log/squeezeboxserver and the files in it should be owned by user squeezeboxserver, so try this:

chown -R squeezeboxserver:squeezeboxserver /var/log/squeezeboxserver

chmod -R u+w /var/log/squeezeboxserver

The first command changes ownership of /var/log/squeezeboxserver to the squeezeboxserver user.

The second command gives that user write permission on /var/log/squeezeboxserver. *See man chown and man chmod for more info on these commands.

OK so now some more errors :

*

Ext 4-fs error (device dm-1) in ext4_find_entry: inode#131567: (Comm ntpd) reading directory lblock 0.

Not sure what this means. Maybe filesystem corruption?*

You could try booting into rescue mode with a Fedora 14 Live CD and performing a file system check (fsck) on the root filesystem:

fsck /dev/VolGroup/lv_root

or

fsck /dev/dm-1

and see if that helps.

[cburbs]

How do you boot into rescue mode on the live cd. I have options like

*

[*]Boot[*]Boot (Basic Video)[*]Verify and Boot[*]Memory Test[*]Boot from local drive.*

[Ron Olsen]

According to*http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Installation_Guide/s2-x86-bootloader-rescue.html

you can type linux rescue at the boot prompt.

For more info, see*http://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/14/html/Installation_Guide/ap-rescuemode.html

[cburbs]

after I typed in linux rescue I get -

*could not find kernal image: linux

The 3 posts by Marko have the info you need (read all of them).

Evidently you have to use the install DVD, not the live CD. Sorry for that.

You can also boot from the VortexBox ISO and select rescue mode from the GUI.
