Description

Was working on MDLSITE-411 when I've connected to download.moodle.org to get some contrib files and test the packager builder.

But I got error: "Read-only file system"

It seems that /dev/hda3 is now mounted as read-only, for sure due to some (bad) disk error. I've tried to run fsck and got:

/dev/hda3: recovering journal
/dev/hda3: Attempt to read block from filesystem resulted in short read while reading block 4421

JBD: Failed to read block at offset 3382
fsck.ext3: Input/output error while recovering ext3 journal of /dev/hda3

I haven't performed more actions mainly because of the risk of needing some hard-reset or similar and not being able to do so from here.

So the disk seems really damaged... perhaps the best option is to backup ASAP and request change.

Seems critical because NOTHING is being built in that machine until fixed (versions, lang, plugins, stats, weeklies...).

Ciao

Wah! OK, I'm ordering a new (faster) machine with RAID.

Server ordered (I was meaning to upgrade this server anyway, it was really bogging down during compilation jobs).

2 x Xeon 3.2
2 x 73Gb SCSI (RAID 1)
2Gb RAM

I expect we'll put the new "Modules and Plugins" system on this server too (MDLSITE-571)

We should have it within the day, then we can move everything over to it.

It seems that download.moodle.org is still available

So, i suppose that this bug can be closed
