Dear WAMUG'ers,
I have just encountered a problem when trying to Repair Disk Permission
using either YASU or Disk Utility. Yasu just kept going on with no
error
message, but after 30mins was still not completed.
Using Disk Utility, it started OK but after a few minutes gave the
following
message:
"Disk Utility Internal Error
Disk Utility has lost its connection with the Disk Management Tool and
cannot continue. Please quit and relaunch Disk Utility."
I relaunched Disk Utility a few times but came up with the same
problem. I
booted the machine using my install disk, and ran Disk Utility which
reported no error.
FIRST : Have you got everything backed up on to another drive ?
NOW , above you said you ran Disk Utility off your install Disk and it
reported no error ! ?
Did you mean you ran the disk check option, or Repair Permissions
option ?
If it was Disk Check/Repair option , have you tried Repair Permission
from the Instal Disk ?
If the Disk and Permissions were all OK from the Instal Disk ,
I would guess you have a corrupted Preferences file ,
and since the same condition applied from a new user it is probably in
the System Library ...
my guess !

Have also used Disk Warrior which repaired a couple of
files. Yet, I still encountered the same error message when running
Repair
Permission.
I have also tried creating a new user, but with the same results.
Repair Permission was run last week without any problems, and the only
new
addition was the recent upgrade to iTunes and iPod.
My computer is:
- G5 Dual 1.8Ghz
- OS 10.3.9
- 1.5GB RAM
Would greatly appreciate any suggestion please.
Many thanks,
Philippe
