[9fans] Error after pull (fossil: diskReadRaw failed)

[9fans] Error after pull (fossil: diskReadRaw failed)

[Juan M. Mendez]

Hello people,

Could you point me how to resolve this?


After a 'pull' I get this messages.
"warning: skipping bad log entry <119>"

And through 'cat  /dev/kmesg':

fossil: diskReadRaw failed: /dev/sdC0/fossil: score 0x0000002a:
part=data block 42: i/o error
fossil: diskWriteRaw failed: /dev/sdC0/fossil: score 0x00000004: date
Fri Feb 23 09:49:34 EST 2001
 part=data block 4: i/o error
fossil: diskReadRaw failed: /dev/sdC0/fossil: score 0x0000002a:
part=data block 42: i/o error
fossil: diskWriteRaw failed: /dev/sdC0/fossil: score 0x00000010: date
Fri Feb 23 09:49:35 EST 2001
 part=data block 16: i/o error

This looks like a hardware error (your disk is failing),
not a software error (pull broke something).

Thanks for the answer Russ.

What would be the right way of checking the fossil filesystem?

% con /srv/fscons
prompt: srv -AWP replica
prompt: fsys main check fix pdir


That would be right?

Thanks,

Juan

I think you want to start at a lower level than the fossil
console. A recent thread, 'venti wrarena i/o errors,'
discussed troubleshooting hardware disk errors, esp. with
dd(1). Manufacturer disk setup/diagnosis tools can be
helpful, too.

Thanks Josh,

The disk is indeed old, I already did a low level format, or that it's what
the tools I used told me :)

The problem was corrected after I booted with the plan9 livecd
and did a check to the disk with this.

fossil/fossil -c 'srv -p fscons'
con /srv/fscons
prompt: srv -AWP replica
prompt: fsys main config /dev/sdC0/fossil
prompt: fsys main open -AWP
warning: connecting to venti: cs: can't translate address: '/srv/dns' file
does not exist
prompt: fsys main
main: check fix

PS: Newbie self note. Don't do this without the livecd (on the running
file system).

i thought you weren't ever supposed to do that with current discs

I used Seagate Tools (sgatfmt4.exe) on a dos bootable floppy over this
Samsung IDE disc.
If the program lied to me saying it was a lowlevel when in fact it
wasn't...my lack of
knowledge can explain it, but it didn't seem a zero fill since it took
2.5 days to complete.
