I was uploading a long MP3 when Win98 crashed. I rebooted and tried starting Emplode again. And everytime I try to start up Emplode I get this error message:

In reply to:

Download failed while checking media. Error 0xc0041016




The player boots up fine but everything has been erased. Even the owner information is erased.

I'm running WIn98, with v2.0b11 with no Hijack. I need some advice ASAP. Anything would be greatly appreciated.

Curly

Doesn't sound good:( Can you hook it up to the serial prompt and capture the text that it's spitting out?

...Look here for steps on how to connect to the serial prompt if you don't already know how:

Not good - it's telling you that your drive is corrupted... equivilant of windows telling you to run scandisk..

can you get a shell prompt?
drop to a shell (press "q" when it says to), then try forcing a checkdisk...

umount /dev/hda4
fsck -f /dev/hda4

-m

Ok I'm assuming I did it correctly. Here's the results:
In reply to:

empeg:/empeg/bin# umount /dev/hda4
umount: /dev/hda4: not found
empeg:/empeg/bin# fsck -f /dev/hda4
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.
Group descriptors look bad... trying backup blocks...
fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/hda4

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:/empeg/bin#

I'm assuming that "empeg:/empeg/bin#_" is the prompt and "umount /dev/hda4" and "fsck -f /dev/hda4" are commands?

>sigh< doesn't look good..

You might want to wait until someone from Empeg can verify what I'm recommending (or offer a better solution), but you might need to re-initialize that disk (wiping everything) then reload:(

I doubt it - if it was a disk drive problem, you wouldn't have gotten as far as you did with the bootup process...

Your drive (I'm assuming that it's a single-drive unit?) is split into seperate partitions; the partition that boot up the empeg is fine, the one holding the music isn't...

...In the case of a disconnected cable, the empeg just doens't boot...

Ok Mark, thanks for all the help.

I guess I'll just hit the sack and hopefully someone from Empeg, or another brilliant mind, will offer some more advice by the time I wake up

Greetings!

OK. Relax. Don't Panic. Yet.

Please post a complete boot log.

Also, you might want to try the following:

1) - get to shell
2) swapon /swapfile
3) umount /drive0
4) umount /drive1 *
5) fsck -fay /
6) fsck -fay /dev/hda4
7) fsck -fay /dev/hdc4 *
8) swapoff
9) - reboot

* - if two drive model.

Hmm, it looks like fsck doesn't pass the -b parameter through to e2fsck. Try running e2fsck directly:
e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/hda4

If that doesn't work, ask somebody else for ideas, as I'm out of them...

e2fsck -b 8193 /dev/hda4

Does mke2fs always put a backup superblock at 8193? Last I heard, its algorithm was pretty wyrd (all powers of 3 and 5, times some large factor that varies with the size of the drive). There isn't even a "mke2fs --dry-run" that tells you where it's putting them.

In reply to:

Dunno - I admit to being on guesswork here.

Here's what the e2fsck manpage on my workstation says:

-b superblock

Instead of using the normal superblock, use an alternative superblock specified by superblock. This option is normally used when the primary superblock has been corrupted. The location of the backup superblock is dependent on the filesystem's blocksize. For filesystems with 1k blocksizes, a backup superblock can be found at block 8193; for filesystems with 2k blocksizes, at block 16384; and for 4k blocksizes, at block 32768.

Additional backup superblocks can be determined by using the mke2fs program using the -n option to print out where the superblocks were created. The -b option to mke2fs, which specifies blocksize of the filesystem must be specified in order for the superblock locations that are printed out to be accurate.

If an alternative superblock is specified and the filesystem is not opened read-only, e2fsck will make sure that the primary superblock is updated appropriately upon completion of the filesystem check.


In reply to:

There isn't even a "mke2fs --dry-run" that tells you where it's putting them.


"man mke2fs" says:

-n causes mke2fs to not actually create a filesystem, but display what it would do if it were to create a filesystem.

Does that not tell you where the superblocks are going? What if you also use -v?

Also,looking at the mke2fs manpage, it mentions rebuilding the superblock if you know the right parameters, using the -S option. Anyone know what incantation to use this on the Empeg?

OK, so all those numbers are worth a try for e2fsck -b number.

-n causes mke2fs to not actually create a filesystem, but display what it would do if it were to create a filesystem.

This is exactly what's needed, but didn't IIRC exist in the e2fsprogs 1.18 that car players are built with.

Greetings!

I tried opening the log file, but it gave a 404 error. I remember seeing a similar superblock error when I was trying to fsck and was using the wrong device name.

A possibility - try reloading the default software. Use the upgrade empeg and the stock developer version. This will not do anything to the music partitions, but will reset your system software to a factory state. Also, are you still running hijack?

Greetings!

Hmm... okay... the boot went through okay... filesystem...

What bothers me is that the fsck -fay looks like it attempted to use an alternative superblock and failed. Although, I just tested this on my empeg. The superblock error you are receiving is the NORMAL error if the command string contains an incorrect device. I remember seeing it before....

Hold...

Edit:

Never mind. The first lines for finding the bad descriptor are new. The superblock paragraph is common. Are you at the factory installation at this point?

I've never run Hijack. So should I uninstall 2.0b11 and reinstall 1.03? If so, is there a procedure to uninstall v2.0b11 from the player or that happens automatically when I install v1.03?

Also attatching log file again.

If you are on 2.0b11, that is fine. Hijack was the add on I was thinking of.

Have you contacted support yet? I am running out of ideas (that will save your data). You may also want to drop a note to Mark Lord. If anyone can help diagnose fs problems...

Incorrect device... (thinks)

I don't see how it could happen, but is /dev/ corrupted? What does "ls -l /dev/hda*" give?

I get

empeg:/empeg/bin# ls -l /dev/hda*

brw------- 1 0 0 3, 0 Apr 18 1999 /dev/hda
brw------- 1 0 0 3, 1 Apr 18 1999 /dev/hda1

brw------- 1 0 0 3, 8 Apr 18 1999 /dev/hda8
brw------- 1 0 0 3, 9 Apr 18 1999 /dev/hda9


If you don't see this, then something's wrong.

EDIT: What worries me more is that the partition table has gone off into a wibbly wobbly world of its own, though again I don't see how losing the PC during a sync could cause that.

No I haven't contacted support yet. I thought I'd give you guys a crack at it first (I know how you guys like a good challenge). I'll give M.Lord a holler and contact support in a few minutes.

Can you try "fsck.ext2 -b 32768 /dev/hda4" ?

I thought that mke2fs defaulted to 4k blocks. It certainly doesn't make sense for 1k blocks to be used for music partitions anyway. If anything they're going to be larger blocksizes.

Personally, I would hit 'y', but I'm a risk taker. The fact that I've never seen e2fsck get anything wrong helps too...

IIRC, I seem to remember reading that the /var parition could be wiped at will - and that anything important gets recreated. In particular, the database gets rebuilt everytime you sync the empeg anyway. But you might want to check this information first.

Anyone else want to chime in?

Yeah I think you're right because I read this last night:

"I had my databases and stuff somehow corrupted and all you need to do to get them back is delete the files /empeg/var/playlists, /empeg/var/tags, and /empeg/var/database and then re-sync. All those files will be rebuilt and it should have gotten you back your original playlists." -Yn0t_

taken from here:http://empeg.comms.net/php/showthreaded.php?Cat=&Board=empeg_general&Number=59084&Search=true&Forum=empeg_general&Words=%2Fempeg%2Fvar&Match=And&Searchpage=0&Limit=25&Old=allposts&Main=59058

I tried to delete those earlier but Empeg couldn't find them. Documented here: http://empeg.comms.net/php/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=empeg_general&Number=86748&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=0&fpart=

Well, removing the inode entry is equivalent to deleting it anyway, which you've already tried..so I say go for it with that one, and also tags and playlist.

Ultimately as I understand it, e2fsck is telling you that you a have an inode pointing to a physically non-existant file. Whether the inode is there or not doesn't really matter at this point - the file is missing.

Well Genixia WINS!!! Great job! Everything back to normal. Everything was rebuilt and I did a synch with Emplode which worked perfectly. A big thanks to everyone that helped out, especially to you Genixia.

Question remains: What was the cause and how to prevent it from happening again.

Oversized config.ini? Lack of jiffies-fix in the kernel? What?

Naah. My theory:
The drives were put into r/w by emplode. Win98 then crashed, leaving the drives in r/w. When win98 gets rebooted, emplode cannot connect to the empeg because the empeg already has a sync session in progress. empeg gets powered-down with the discs still mounted r/w, and the corruption occurs in the main superblock, necessitating the use of an alternative superblock to complete e2fsck.

This is probably worth FAQing. ie, the part that if you see a bad superblock message that causes fsck to fail then to specify -b 32768. Although input from the empeg guys should probably be sought.

If this bad superblock thing is true, would the instructions be something that can be added logically to the existing FAQ entry on FSCK? Could I get an accurate syntax and a consensus on the proper directions?

No one answered your question about the config.ini. Here is the FAQ entry on it. Basically, it is only a concern if you have played with the "favorite visuals" feature in emplode...

Thanks. I failed to say that after all was fixed, the Visual Favorites did get deleted and I had to reprogram it. Now come to think of it I might have synced more than once in a single session, something that I forgot not to do with v2.0b11. When's the next beta coming out? j/k

Well, I'm kinda late tuning in (might have saved some time, but igenixia figured it out, well done!), but for the FAQ just simply say,

If you see this:
fsck.ext2: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/hda4

then do this:
fsck.ext2 -fay -b 32768 /dev/hda4
Cheers

EDIT: added -fay to the above

Do the drives need to be mounted read-write, read-only...?

After it's done... Do I have to set it back...?

Drives should NOT be mounted read-write (they won't be, either, unless the user mounted them him/her self). Read-only is okay; or not mounted at all is good, too.

Afterwards, just reboot the player (cycle the power).

The drives were put into r/w by emplode. Win98 then crashed, leaving the drives in r/w. When win98 gets rebooted, emplode cannot connect to the empeg because the empeg already has a sync session in progress. empeg gets powered-down with the discs still mounted r/w, and the corruption occurs in the main superblock, necessitating the use of an alternative superblock to complete e2fsck.

That would be my guess too.

Interestingly, there is a failsafe in the player that can sometimes stop this happening. If the PC or Emplode crashes, but the player does not, the player eventually (2 minutes later) decides that Emplode isn't coming back, and remounts the discs read-only by itself.

So the message is (and I admit here it's our fault for not getting the message out more), if your PC has crashed while the Empeg has the "synchronising" screen up, wait for the sychronising screen to go away before powering off the Empeg. Any playlists you were editing will probably still be lost, but at least your filesystem will not get borked.

Indeed. And the rebooting bit is important: you can easily scrag your filesystem if you mount it read-only for fsck, then fsck fixes something, then you remount it read-write and do stuff to it. So always either (a) unmount the filesystem to fsck it, or (b) reboot afterwards if fsck made any modifications. For music partitions (a) is easier, but obviously for the root partition (b) is the only way.

Failure to do either (a) or (b) was the bug in the only known alpha release of the player ever to have hosed someone's music partition.

Well it happened again today. Recieved the same error as the one mentioned in the first post. Windows did not crash this time and I have Hijack installed. Here's the Hyper Terminal login info:

Went ahead and typed "fsck.ext2 -b 32768 /dev/hda4" to fix it. Works fine now but I see these errors in the Hyper Terminal:

The first yellow error is because it first tries to mount it as a reiser filesystem (journalling - inherited from some other product or if it was planned but not used)
It's benign as the player falls back and mounts it as an ext2 filesystem instead.

The second error is because you have only one drive. It always tries to mount the music partition of the second drive, even when it's not there - also benign.

Oh well ok. Thanks.

But I am concerned about this happening a second time within such a short period of time and the fact that no one else seems to have this reoccuring problem. Perhaps it's time to contact support.
