                Hello,

                Trying to save a long document I got an error.

                So tried to open a new document to copy there the
        content of
                the older. But it gives an error: read only file system.

                Any idea why this applVM now decided to be a read only
        file
                system? and if  is there a fix other than rebooting?
                Best

            It probably means there is a logical inconsistency
        (corruption) in
            that filesystem, or it filled-up. You can avoid the latter by
            expanding the Private storage max size in the VM's settings.


        It should be corruption, because there is plenty of space.

        Anyway I had to reboot and after that it worked again even if
        an alert of Python not working appears.

        Is there some way to fix corruption cases?
        Best

    Using 'fsck' on it might fix it. Before doing that, you may have
    to re-mount the volume as read-only; or you could use qvm-block to
    attach the private.img to a dispVM and then run fsck /dev/xvdi .


The second seems easier, but the same I am confused. Is there a tutorial somewhere?
Best

I can explain the steps. You may wish to backup your appVM before continuing.

1. Start a dispVM (I'll call it disp1). Your appVM should not be running.

2. In dom0 run 'qvm-block -A /var/lib/qubes/appvms/yourappvm/private.img'
Substitute 'yourappvm' in above command with the name of your appVM.

Correction: This command should be 'qvm-block -A disp1 dom0:/var/lib/qubes/appvms/yourappvm/private.img'
