unmounting file system doesn't work at shutdown (after upgrade to 11.1)
Last modified: 2009-01-23 10:54:30 UTC
Hello, after I upgrading from 11.0 to 11.1, I have two major problems. During shutdown the disks can not be unmounted correctly. Unmounting fuse control fails and unmounting file systems also. When I remove mtab lock files (/etc/mtab containing tilde ~) then it seems to work correctly. But mtab~ appear again after next boot. Another problem is that I can not access removable medias (CD, DVD, USB-Sticks etc.). They seem to be mounted but I do not have any access to them (no read, no write). Both problems popped up after the upgrade to 11.1 Let me know if logs, other data is needed. Regards
I found a workaround. When deactivating jexec in runlevel editor, the problem disappears. Which means I can mount removable medias without any problem and no mtab lock files are created. It seems that jexec tries to mount something and this mount process hangs. I changed severity to 'normal'. Regards,
i second this bug, this is a huge pain in the ass, this gets unclean filesystems after each and every reboot. please fix. please also see german thread here: http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-de/2009-01/msg01958.html and here about a fix in various aaa_base scripts or something: http://www.linux-club.de/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=99992&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&start=20 some guy seem to have reordered some parts of some script /etc/init.d/halt and such stuff. thanks and regards.
I confirm the weird behave, sometimes also in a brand new opensuse 11.1 install
Ruediger, can you look at the bug?
Please try out the two packages I've attached on bug #466484 but read the comments https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466484#c3 , https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466484#c4 , and the comment https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466484#c5
If this also works for you we have a duplicate here.
No responce, mark it as duplicate *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 466484 ***
I didn't find the time to check the attached packages. Is that really a duplicate of 466484 !? Here is the german thread in linux club forum: http://www.linux-club.de/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=99754 My solution was to deactivate the jexec.
whats jexec supposed to be/do? dont have no jexec anywhere on/in my system. not in ram, not on disk. the jexec stuff might be a completely different problem.
jexec is a service. It has something to do with java I think. When you install 11.1 from scratch it seems that it is not installed. It is there because it was installed with 11.0 and I upgraded to 11.1.
Question: To which package does jexec belong to?
jexec belongs to the jdk package from SUN. I've found this http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jdk/install-linux.html I probably got it from some openSUSE repositories. Can not reproduce.
