Fedora Hardware :: Tape Input - Output Error ?

May 3, 2011

I'm either missing the obvious or have four identically defective tape drives. Each is a Seagate or IBM Travan drive (yes, I know they're old and I need to access the data; they were in Win boxes) using QIC-80/DC-2120 media. I've been trying to solve this using three Fedora boxes (different versions) and one Debian machine.

The OS's recognize the drives and they show up as /dev/st0.

With no media in the drives, I get a status report; with media inserted, I get the same input/output errors.

Examples (all as root):

With tape inserted:

With no tape in drive:

With tape inserted

Everything I've found on Google suggests that the drives are defective.

Fedora :: Input / Output Error On NTFS HDD

Mar 25, 2011

My dad is out of town for a while, so I've been using his computer to rip my DVDs with Handbrake. He has Windows Vista installed, so I did a full installation of Fedora 13 on a thumb drive and just run everything off of that. However, when I went to delete some of the encoded videos after I had moved them to my computer, I got a system error that said 'can't delete files: I/O error.' Now, if I try to boot up Windows, his computer is stuck on a black screen checking a bunch of dlls. He'll be back in a couple of weeks, so I'd like to have it fixed by then.

Fedora :: Input/output Error When Trying To Copy DVD Contents With DD

Mar 3, 2010

I even threw some video DVDs at it to make sure it wasn't the disc.

Code:

[pickens@acer1 Videos]$ dd if=/dev/sr0 of=POTC.iso
dd: reading `/dev/sr0': Input/output error
5088+0 records in

[code]....

I am getting the same thing on my laptop running Mandriva, oddly enough. Two different drives, two different computers, two different distros and multiple DVDs.

Fedora :: Cannot Remove `file': Input/output Error

Jan 21, 2011

When running rsnapshot tonight it failed with a bunch of

cannot remove `file': Input/output error

errors.

I navigated to the directory and tried to delete it manually and I got the same errors. I tried with 'sudo rm directory'. How else can I delete this directory? What would cause a situation like this?

Fedora :: Input/output Error When Copying Files To Fedora Live CD?

Dec 21, 2010

I booted my Fedora 13 live CD on my Dell server, and configured networking and SSHd. On my desktop I logged into the live cd and started copying over a big file (1.5 GB) (i.e. copying from the desktop computer to the server). After copying about half the fil, the download fails with an error message about the filesystem being read-only.I've seen this exact same behavior on both i386 and x86_64 of the same live CD, but don't know why it's happening. I've also had the same issue when copying small files. In /var/log/messages these messages are repeated many times:

Code:
Dec 20 12:32:23 localhost kernel: Buffer I/O error on device dm-0, logical block 684075
Dec 20 12:32:23 localhost kernel: lost page write due to I/O error on dm-0

Fedora :: On Boot: Mdadm Failed To Start Raid: Input/Output Error?

Jul 31, 2010

I have a strange issue with my RAID5 array - it worked fine for a month, a couple days ago it didn't start on boot with mdadm reporting "Input/Output error" - I didn't panic restarted my computer, same error. Then opened a Disk utility and it reported State: Not running, partially assembled - don't know why, I've pressed Stop RAID Array and started it again, voila - it reported State: Running - I've checked components list and there was nothing wrong with it. So I run Check Array utility, waited almost 3 hours to finish it and it worked since than, till today's morning - I've started my computer, and here we go, same error.

See screenshots:

This is an initial state just after computer startup:

This is after I stop and start RAID5:

This is a components list:

I can see nothing wrong there yet not sure why mdadm fails on boot. I do not really like the windows solution I guess, when I check my array again, it will work fine again, but it then can fail in the same way without known reason.

CentOS 5 :: EBS Volume - Input / Output Error

Feb 24, 2011

We are running an C++ application in AWS EC2 instance (CentOS 5.4) mounted with an EBS Volume (say /mymountpoint). We do more simultaneous writes to the EBS Volume from our application. But at some point we get 'ERROR: Input/output error'. After this, 'ls -l /mymountpoint' command itself fails with the i/o error. The filesystem which we use for the EBS Volume is xfs. I unmounted the drive and done xfs_check and again mounted the drive. Now, everything seems to be working fine. But the issue still persists everytime when we do simultaneous writes.

I believe the following details will be useful,
[root@domU-12-31-39-07-81-36 StoreGrid]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.4 (Final) .....

Output of dmesg :
SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, large block numbers, no debug enabled
SGI XFS Quota Management subsystem
Filesystem "sdh": Disabling barriers, not supported by the underlying device

Ubuntu Multimedia :: Input - Output Error With Growisofs

Mar 10, 2010

I use the growisofs command from the terminal to do most of my burning. Mostly because i burn almost the exact same type of file every time so its pretty easy to set up. I've done this dozens of times and never once had a problem before. I loved it because it was so much simpler than doing this in windows where i would need to install a few extra programs and codecs. That was up until today where it started failing every single time i tried to burn something.

For some reason every time i try to burn a disc it gives me this error message:

Code:

I'm really at a loss as to why this is happening. Every thread i found that discussed this problem was mostly focused on k3b or brasero and never really answered the question. As far as i know nothing has been updated since the last time i burned a disc a few days ago. Everything is exactly the same as it was when it worked. The only thing i could think of that might have caused this sudden failure is that i flashed the firmware of another cd drive using the same sata port that this drive is currently plugged into, but that was in windows so i dont see how it could have affected this drive.

Ubuntu :: 10.04 Install Encountered Input / Output Error

Aug 19, 2010

I'm having some trouble installing Ubuntu 10.04. What I am trying to do is completely wipe all things on my computer and install Ubuntu. I have followed the instructions from Ubuntu's homepage on how to download the ISO, and ran their program to put it onto a portable USB device. Through doing all of this, I receive no error messages. Then it tells me to change the BIOS to boot from USB, so I did that. I've successfully accessed the install menu and filled in all the information requested (i.e. computer name, account name, etc.). I select that I want to delete the current partitions and use only Ubuntu. It starts to install, but at 67%, while copying files, I receive an error.

This error is:
The installer encountered an error copying files to the hard disk:
[Errno 5] Input/output error
This is often due to a faulty CD/DVD disk or drive, or a faulty hard disk. It may help to clean the CD/DVD, to burn the CD/DVD at a lower speed, to clean the CD/DVD drive lens (cleaning kits are often available from electronics suppliers), to check whether the hard disk is old and in need of replacement, or to move the system to a cooler environment.

Ubuntu :: Cannot Open File: Input/output Error

Nov 11, 2010

I just received a 1TB external(Western Digital) hard drive(NTFS) for backup purposes. I'm using an Ubuntu Live CD, and an external hard drive dock. I am transferring over esata and am receiving the error:

Code:

Cannot open file: input/output error

Seems strange that it said "open". At any rate only about 60 of the 200+ GB were able to be transferred over...this won't do. I have tried to copy via CLI using

Code:

cp -r

and received the same issue. For clarification I am attempting to transfer from a mounted partition onto the mounted external.

General :: Cannot Remove `<directory>': Input/output Error?

Sep 14, 2010

I have a WD external disk, NTFS file system. I mounted it on my Red Hat. While on the external disk, I deleted a directory, which was sent to .Trash-root of that disk.I went to .Trash-root and did rm -rf to completely delete that directory, but I got the following error: cannot remove `<directory>': Input/output errorWhen I do ls -la on that directory that I wish to remove, it shows me it has 0 files inside. But not only I can't remove it, I can't do anything else with it (copy, etc). And I have all the rights on that directory, so this isn't the problem.

Ubuntu :: Canot Remove File Input/output Error

Apr 8, 2010

I got a new HDD like a Storage on my Ubuntu ,it is formated as ext3 and i am able to mount it ,but sometimes while downloading from FTP ,when the session broke Ubuntu crates some ./afternature.mp4 Input/output error ,which i can see on "ls -l" ,and that causes great troubles to me ,because i can not copy or write on that disk another file with the same one which is created like this ,these error are gone only if i format the hdd .

My mounting command is "mount /dev/hdb3 /tmp/hd ext3 rw 0 0" So is that possible to remove these error without formatting the disk . PS:I did a lot of search for that error ,on unix forums also here but i didn`t find a concrete answer ,i found a thread which is for that case but removing with inode is impossible because on ls -l i`m not receiving the inode .
