Have you done anything like changing your init?

Because if something were wrong with the way the player app were being called from this nonstandard init, then it might manifest itself in the way you describe.

See if you can blast a fresh Beta13 onto the player (without changing the init) and see if it synchs then. After that, add the nonstandard init back into place to see if it breaks.

I tried putting in hijack 291, and syncing. Nothing. From emplode:

Failed to open database connection error 0x80040015.

I don't see how init could have something to do with this? I backed out the preinit.d scripts. rebooted and tried sync. Nothing. I'm working progressively backward.

Have you installed a fresh Beta13 .upgrade file as I suggested?

I've tried the following. fsck on /dev/hda4 and /dev/hdc4 show CLEAN. Then I tried the following:

empeg:/# cd /
empeg:/# fsck /drive0
Parallelizing fsck version 1.19 (13-Jul-2000)
e2fsck 1.19, 13-Jul-2000 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determining whether /dev/
hda4 is mounted.
/dev/hda4: clean, 4806/228352 files, 2488799/7304850 blocks
empeg:/# fsck /drive1
Parallelizing fsck version 1.19 (13-Jul-2000)
e2fsck 1.19, 13-Jul-2000 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determining whether /driv
e1 is mounted.
fsck.ext2: Is a directory while trying to open /drive1

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>

empeg:/#

could this have anything to do with anything?

I'm reasonably sure that if your player is a single-disk player, the "dev/hda4" error is normal and does not indicate a problem (since there is no dev/hda4).

Someone correct me if I'm wrong?

On my two-drive player I get the "Tried to mount /dev/hda4 as reiserfs but got error 19", which is also normal, I believe.

Except... I have two disks.

There is nothing wrong with the player. No missing files. I can access drive0 and drive1 and look around freely. I can mount and unmount rw, ro. With hijack in I can ftp in and out. streaming is ok. Everything is ok, except sync from emplode.

First, you don't want to fsck while they're mounted.

See if you can do a ``umount /dev/hda4''. Make sure the player application is stopped (that is, press `q' at the serial port) and make sure you're not cd'd into /drive0 anywhere. Then run ``fsck /dev/hda4''. If it claims that it's clean, try a ``fsck -f /dev/hda4''.

If any of those steps fail, don't go any further. Reboot and get back to us.

Then let us know what happens.

ext2fs_check_if_mount: No such file or directory while determining whether [mount point or device] is mounted.

IIRC this error is normal, and due to fsck looking for which filesystems that are mounted in /etc/mtab, but the empeg doesn't have an /etc/mtab file...

I don't believe I have. If I can go into drive0 and drive1 and observe all the files and nothing is wrong with them, then that wouldn't be the case right? I did an ls anyway here are the results:

Right. It claimed both filesystems were clean. So go back, do it again, and add a `-f' option to fsck to force it to actually check the filesystems. That is, ``fsck -f /dev/hda4'', etc. Make sure you remember to umount them first again.

Note that I have no idea if this is actually where your problem lies or not.

I am not able to sync tunes or playlists over. I am able to sync the config.ini file over. Strange right? If I attempt to sync over a tune or a playlist, and it fails in the following manner.

Ah, it's not even trying to synch. It's not getting that far. It wants to do a disk check, and the disk check is failing.

It's actually now a different error than before. So it's failing at a different place.

The following is a more detailed manual fsck, as per the FAQ, but alas, with the same results. I don't really see an error, except for the "no such file or directory" thing, but I'm told that is normal? So if that's the case, there is theoretically nothing wrong but it will not sync. :-( The good news is I can still *listen* to music, I can still operate the hijack web server, the hijack ftp server, etc etc. Nothing else seems out of the ordinary.

Is there anything else he can try short of reformatting? Maybe a fresh install of emplode on a different computer?

Does anyone know precisely what's happening during ``Checking Media''? I would think that it would be a cursory fsck, but, given that it's working properly from the command line, that wouldn't seem to be the case.

Do you have any third party software running on the empeg? If so, try disabling it all and then try to sync again.

Perhaps not reformatting. Perhaps a fresh load of a standard upgrade would be enough. It would wipe the root partition, but leave the music intact. Question: are you syncing over ethernet, USB or (heaven forefend) serial?

yeah, i was just about to say. i've encountered this problem when i ran a userland app that was on my music drive. if you kill -hup all the 3rd party, you should be able to sync.

Why SIGHUP? While, by default, it will kill a process, it's often overridden to do something else, usually restart. SIGTERM (15) would be a much more obvious choice to kill a process.
