W. Meunier" Subject: 2.4.2: What happened ? (No such file or directory) To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Hi. I was using 2.4.2 without any problems until a flood of warnings from multilog (daemontools) appeared at my console. What I first thought to be a log problem seems to be serious. For some reason applications and daemons (not all) can't find files. Mutt doesn't recognize ~/Mail/postponed if I try to postpone a message: /home/pervalidus/Mail/postponed: No such file or directory (errno = 2) CVS reports cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot rename file .new.foo to foo: No such file or directory Trying to build an application (for example devfsd) I get: cc -O2 -I. -Wall -c -o devfsd.o devfsd.c In file included from /usr/include/signal.h:307, from /usr/include/sys/wait.h:30, from devfsd.c:188: /usr/include/bits/sigcontext.h:28: asm/sigcontext.h: No such file or directory make: *** [devfsd.o] Error 1 All files and directories are there. I can add, move, remove, and edit/save everything. But if I try to move a directory with mc I get: Cannot move directory "/foo" to "/bar" No such file or directory (2) with mc. It works with mv(1). Also I can't umount the partitions. I'm using ext2. Any hints ? My .config is at http://members.nbci.com/pervalidus/.config-2.4.2.txt Sorry, I couldn't use Mutt and Exim to send this message: ==> /var/exim/log/exim_mainlog <== 2001-03-03 16:00:17 14ZHGL-0000Yj-00 Message abandoned: Spool write error (No such file or directory) while receiving message from pervalidus 2001-03-03 16:00:17 14ZHGL-0000Yk-00 Message abandoned: Spool write error (No such file or directory) while receiving message from exim 2001-03-03 16:00:17 14ZHGL-0000Yj-00 Child mail process returned status 1 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
