[Bug 366867] Re: input/output error - no applications launch after upgrading to Jaunty
I never tried 2.6.28-11 again, and I eventually wiped the machine and installed a later version of Ubuntu from scratch. I've experienced bugs during an Ubuntu upgrade, but this was by far the worst-- it completely disabled my machine until I managed a rollback. This bug was filed a year ago. I have not experienced this bug with a new installation.

After a reboot, vpnc works for me... HOWEVER, the user/group password is randomly forgotten, even when the GUI option Saved is selected. Ask every time does not actually ask, ever. The only way to use the VPN connection after the passwords are randomly forgotten is to click Configure VPN and type the passwords again and set the dropdown to Saved.

[Bug 366867] Re: input/output error - no applications launch after upgrading to Jaunty
My machine is still bricked. Booting into recovery-mode and open into root, when I attempt to do a simple touch foo the error response is read-only file system. Why would my primary boot drive suddenly become read only? ...and why did this occur immediately after upgrading to Jaunty? When I boot into Gnome, I have sometimes 60 seconds where applications open normally (including opening a terminal and doing a touch foo without error). Within 60 secs, however, I cannot open anything without the failed to open child process mentioned above. Unbelievably upsetting.

[Bug 366867] [NEW] input/output error - no applications launch after upgrading to Jaunty
Public bug reported: After what appeared to be a normal upgrade from Intrepid to Jaunty, I have a completely non-functioning installation. I type in name/password combination and load into Gnome normally and see the new, spiffy Jaunty desktop background. At this point, ANY application I attempt to launch fails with the error popup: Could not launch '*' Failed to execute child process # (Input/output error) ...where =Application name (such as Calculator) and =Executable name (such as gcalctool). There are some exceptions to this: Exception A) I can launch a terminal. About 50% of the time, it opens up a frozen terminal that I cannot type into. When I do have a functioning terminal, nothing in the terminal actually works though. I can cd ~ but attempting to run an exectuable gives me the same vague input/output error like this: n...@zeke:~$ /usr/bin/gvim bash: /usr/bin/gvim: Input/output error Exception B) Attempting to launch some applications at least flickers the application for a moment before it either crashes or becomes invisible. The applications that do this (rather than simply popping up the Failed to execute child message above) are Custom Launcher apps. I used Compiz,with lots of effects turned on, but no hand-modification- tweaks. I usually avoid editing config files by hand in general, so this can be considered a fairly standard installation. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New -- input/output error - no applications launch after upgrading to Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366867 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This was solved by: 1) press ESC during the GRUB bootup 2) select the top recovery mode (ie-- Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2,6,x-generic (recovery mode) 3) Recovery Menu: select xfix (press the down arrow to the very bottom of the list) 4) watch the magic 5) resume or reboot Looks like something with Gnome and/or Compiz was borked during the upgrade to Jaunty. -- input/output error - no applications launch after upgrading to Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366867 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 366867] Re: input/output error - no applications launch after upgrading to Jaunty
I was wrong, the error still occurs and xfix did not solve this. This allowed a few minutes where custom launcher apps work before they crash. Once one crashes, they all crash instantly after starting. Other non-custom app launchers still fail with previous Failed to execute child above.

I think I'm just talking to myself, but I really need help. This is more than a bug, it's turned my computer into a brick. There are more errors going on then I can properly record, but here are some that I've seen. During bootup: [ 251.026822] end_request: I/O error, dev sdb, sector 836705927 ...lots of those for different sectors... Also something about VMWare, no module (I used vmware briefly until I switch to VirtualBox for simplicity). During the brief opportunity after logging into Gnome where apps start without crashing instantly or giving the Failed to execute message, I started Synaptic, popup window (over the Synaptic Package Manager background) shows error: An error occurred The following details are provided: E: Unable to write mmap - msync (5 Input/output error) E: Failed to truncate file - ftruncate (30 Read-only file system) E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

@Alexander Sack RE: 1longtime, your issue is most likely bug 268667 This was the first one I tried and bug 268667 fixed my problem. Thanks Alexander. After trying the suggested fix in that bug, my VPN connects successfully. Oddly, when I tried to undo the fix, it continued to connect properly. @Martin Pitt RE: intrepid-proposed updates I did an apt-get upgrade with entrepid-proposed sources several days ago, before verified the source had updated (and accidentally updated quite a bit more than I expected... oops). I just did another apt-get update/upgrade and found updates for a number of packages, including a couple of pptp packages. The VPN problem is still fixed, but because I couldn't rollback the fixes from bug 268667 we can't be certain that the updates fixed my issue. @jmcantrell Could not find advanced-dialog.c. I'm not sure how to apply your patch. Another side-note: manually adding refuser-eap to ppp options fixed ONE of my Ubuntu boxes but not the other (the one I've been fighting with in this thread).
