Hi there! I have been working on a very strange JFS-related problem for more than 4 months now. I hope, you guys can help me fixing this finally...
So, I am developing a video cutting tool for an embedded device (set-top-box) with Linux operationg system and JFS file system. My tool uses a quite simple cutting routine, that has been built-in into the firmware by the manufacturer. Now, on a (very small) number of users it happens, that while cutting a recorded video file, this file gets damaged in a mysterious way. All files that are damaged this way get unrevocably erased during the next execution of fsck. On suchlike damaged files, jfs_fsck regularly reports an error like this one: File system object FF4121 is linked as: /DataFiles/Tierärztin Dr. Mertens (25).rec cannot repair the data format error(s) in this file. cannot repair FF4121. Will release. ... and then it erases the file. So, could you please give me a hint, what exactly is meant by this error message? And how could such a damage possibly be caused? If you have any questions or need any further information or debugging from me, please let me know! And I am thankful for every tip or peace of advice ;-) Best regards, Christian PS: Some additional information: This post shows a logfile of jfs_fsck 1.1.15 on a (mounted, but errorfree) hard disk. http://www.topfield-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?p=988963 Is it normal to get such a bunch of error messages? Or are there some critical ones in there? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Put Bad Developers to Shame Dominate Development with Jenkins Continuous Integration Continuously Automate Build, Test & Deployment Start a new project now.
