Hi Nikolaus,

The server I mounted a S3QL file system on is still in test. I installed
owncloud and configured its data directory to be on a mounted S3 volume
using S3QL. Rebooting automounts the volume. I was on holiday for a week
and when I came back the system had no free disk space. It turned out the
volume was not mounted and the mountpoint got filled up with owncloud data.
I don't knwo what caused the volume to unmount. I deleted the data (user
data, but it's test so no issue) to free up space, rebooted the server. Now
I am unable to mount the S3 filesystem. It keeps saying "Mounting
filesystem..." and does not return to the prompt. Running fsck.s3ql --force
works but does not help.

Any tips & tricks?

Best regards, Sven
