Crash on flexo startup #20
Comments
The error occurs when flexo tries to read extended file attributes from files in
It would be interesting to see what exactly VALUE is in your case. Thanks! |
I'm now getting 50 of this error, all with the same message and value. I was then able to use flexo without any further issues.
Again please let me know if there is anything else I can do. |
That's odd, I don't understand why this problem appeared out of nowhere. Did you change the location of the cached packages? Did you recreate the file system where the cached packages are located? What file system are you using? Flexo requires extended attributes, but they are supported by pretty much all important file systems. As a workaround, please try the following:
If all goes well, flexo should not report any errors when restarted. |
Yep, no errors now. Very peculiar.
But upon restarting again there are no further errors. I haven't touched the cache or filesystem since I setup the server a few weeks ago. Could it be due to the system crashing? I had one crash the other day due to an unstable overclock, but I definitely wasn't downloading anything at the time. |
If you still get permission errors, use I'm glad the issue is gone for now, but I'm still puzzled as to what exactly has happened. Apparently, the ZFS is considered stable, and I would not expect a stable file system to write gibberish because of a system crash. But it's still possible. Anyway, thank you for reporting this and helping me to troubleshoot this issue. I'll make a few more changes to improve flexo's error handling so that it can handle messed up extended attribute values and then close this issue. |
Everything has been working brilliantly for the past few weeks, but upon attempting an update today I've realised the service has not been running and is currently crashing on startup. I don't recall making any changes to flexo.
Please let me know if you need any more info and thank you for your help.
