I got this.. The system was usuable, but not very. If I tried to access the ext3 volume, it would hang. Reboot hung too, complaining about too many open files. Any ideas? I have no idea what triggered it; this is a big file/web/mail server, with all of that on the ext3 volume. And I've never run ksymoops before, but I think I did it right. - Josh Assertion failure in

Hi, By running some scripts on our target system for a while, I lost all means of access to the system. It seems that the kernel is crashed with the following error message: Assertion failure in do_get_write_access() at transaction.c:731: "(((jh2bh(jh))->b_state & (1UL << BH_Uptodate)) != 0)" Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 4 We are currently running Linux version

I had the following spat out by syslog on my (2.4.18-pre7-ac3) mailer / web server: Assertion failure in do_get_write_access() at transaction.c:611: "!(((jh2bh(jh))->b_state & (1UL << BH_Lock)) != 0)" One of its partitions froze hard--I've rebooted it, and I have an oops which the BUG() triggered which won't decode at the moment, but I'll sort that one out

Although the parameterized samples have allowed people to get a firewall up and running quickly, they have unfortunately set the wrong level of expectation among those who have used them. I am therefore withdrawing support for the samples and I am recommending that they not be used in new Shorewall installations. -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Shorewall - iptables made easy AIM: tmeastep \

Hello, Over the last month or so, I've noticed the following error showing up repeatedly in my system logs under kernel 2.4.18-ac3 and more recently under 2.4.19-rc1: EXT3-fs error (device ide0(3,3)) in ext3_new_inode: error 28 I've now been able to capture the following Oops before the system went down entirely: Assertion failure in do_get_write_access() at transaction.c:611:

I noticed in the archives that there were patches for this problem, but I've yet to find the patches. Has this been fixed in any of the released kernel RPMs from Redhat? Right now this system is running Redhat 7.2. When I can get a maintenance window I'm going to upgrade to 7.3 and I'm hoping there is a standard kernel available that fixes these problems. kernel: Assertion failure in

All, I know that there is no official port to Kernel 2.4.4, thus I may not get any help, however I am hoping someone could point me in the right direction for my problem. I am currently forced to use kernel 2.4.4 for reasons out of my control (embedded board). Here are the exact versions of everything I'm running: ExT3 Version: ext3-2.4-0.9.6-248 Util Version: util-linux-2.11f.tar.bz2 e2fs

Hi, I use ext3 over RAID1+0 LUN. When I disconnect my fiber cable to the RAID (in order to force a migration to a failover node) I expect to see I/O errors and then a failure to write/read to the filesystem, but in addition I get an Assertion failure. The end result is of course an unusable system which needs to be rebooted. (I reboot the system via machine_restart which works okay but I guess

Hello All, I am running Redhat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.7-10 on a Dual CPU, 2 GB RAM machine.

Hi, as I mentioned in earlier mail to ext3-users I have been getting some corruption on an ext3 filesystem that has been serving NFS. I am now confident that I fully understand the problem and have a patch. It only affects data=journal mode and I wonder if it might also be the cause of the corruption noted by a number of people on linux-kernel. First I will explain the problem. Then display

(sort-of xposted from linux-kernel) Hi, I am wondering how to interpret this error message, which popped up on a 2.4.26 SMP x86 box two days ago: EXT2-fs: corrupt root inode, run e2fsck init_special_inode: bogus imode (37316) EXT2-fs: corrupt root inode, run e2fsck init_special_inode: bogus imode (37316) EXT2-fs: corrupt root inode, run e2fsck The problem is, the error message doesn't

I guess this could be filed under the 'shot myself in the foot' section, but I figured I'd report it anyways.. Kernel 2.5.50-bk6, x86, preempt, PIIX IDE, ext3 fs. I dd'ed the first part of a ext3 partition to tmp, then mounted it via loopback. (the image passed a fsck, except for warning about corrupt part. table or superblock) I tried to 'cd' into a directory within

I have ext3 0.0.6b + 2.2.19 and cannot get ext3 to compile as a module. If I try to modularize it, or turn in off completely, the kernel build fails. Is there an easy fix for this, or is there something that I am missing? Thanks. Peter

I have installed Mandrake 8.1 and chose ext3 for my main partitions (other than root). However, stupidly, I cannot now remember whether I specified ext3 for some other partitions that I haven't yet mounted (these are essentially just spare capacity, though they may have some files on them if they weren't formatted). Is there a simple way of telling whether I should mount these as

When trying to build ext3 as a module, I get the follwing errors during the kernel link: /usr/bin/kgcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/home/brian/src/kernel-2.2.19-pre6mvd/linux-2.2.19pre6-kdb-ext3/include -c -o dummy_sym.o dummy_sym.c ld -m elf_i386 -T /home/brian/src/kernel-2.2.19-pre6mvd/linux-2.2.19pre6-kdb-ext3/arch/i386/vmlinux.lds -e stext arch/i386/kernel/head.o arch/i386/kernel/init_t ask.o -Map map

http://www.alsa-project.org/~iwai/audio-latency.pdf seems to suggest that ext3 should not be used with 2.6 kernels for audio work. Why is this, and is there likely to be any improvement? - Richard. -- Richard Kimber http://www.psr.keele.ac.uk/
