I've just upgrade my Solaris 2.6 (up-to-date patches) Sun UE-450 Netatalk server from version 1.4b2+asun2.0a18.2 to 1.4b2+asun2.1.3., Mac's are running OS 8.1 with TCP/IP connection to the server and now we are having strange things happening.
From the Users:
Our file server (Catalog
NFS) is exhibiting some very strange behavior. Quark files are becoming
corrupt, and when trying to copy files, we often get a message saying that
a file can't be copied because a disk error has occurred. The file
seems to copy all right anyway, but the rest of the copy operation is aborted.
There have also been instances of people being dropped from the server
at random. Also, sometimes when navigating through the folders on
the server, all the open windows will spontaneously close. We are
very close to a critical deadline on a project and cannot afford to be
losing pages at this point. Please Help!!!
Glen Schuler.
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced these types of problems or have any suggestions on how to solve this issue (other than reverting back to 1.4b2+asun2.0a18.2).
"when trying to copy files, we often get a message saying that
a file can't be copied because a disk error has occurred"
Error: The file "FileName" couldn't be read, because
a disk error occurred. Do you want to continue copying? Stop or Continue.
After hitting continue it keeps the copy dialog box open and then shuts
down all open finder window. But does not disconnect user form the
server. File is copied anyway and is readable.?????
Get this in my /var/adm/messages file:
Mar 23 10:00:20 prometheus afpd[27377]: dsi_stream_read(-1): Connection
reset by peer
Mar 23 10:00:20 prometheus afpd[27377]: dsi_stream_write: Broken pipe
Mar 23 10:00:20 prometheus last message repeated 1 time
Mar 23 10:12:54 prometheus afpd[27649]: afp_openfork: ad_open: I/O
error
Any suggestion???
Any help appreciated
