Hello All, I am very excited to install ISPConfig on Debian Squeeze, but while following the tutorial I came across an issue with Quotas. I installed Quotas and edited /etc/fstab per the instructions. I then remounted the drive but I receive the following errors: Code: debian:~# quotacheck -avugm quotacheck: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/root: No such file or directory quotacheck: Cannot find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option. debian:~# quotaon -avug quotaon: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/root: No such file or directory Here is my /etc/fstab: Code: # /etc/fstab: static file system information. # # <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass> proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 /dev/xvda / ext3 noatime,errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=aquota.user,grpjquota=aquota.group,jqfmt=vfsv0 0 1 /dev/xvdb none swap sw 0 0 A good Google search doesn't seem to be solving this one. Does anyone have any ideas? Thank you!
Here's a readout of my drives if it may be of any help. Code: zeus:~# fdisk -l Disk /dev/xvda: 16.9 GB, 16911433728 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 2056 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Disk /dev/xvda doesn't contain a valid partition table Disk /dev/xvdb: 268 MB, 268435456 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 32 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x00000000 Disk /dev/xvdb doesn't contain a valid partition table
It's Xen Virtualization. I believe the reason it doesn't work is because the kernel was compiled without Journal support.
I am also having this problem, using a XEN based VPS at Linode. I contacted support and was assured that the kernel I am using have journaling compiled in. I also have a Lenny install, so I compared quotaon --version on both Lenny (working quotas): Quota utilities version 3.16. Compiled with: USE_LDAP_MAIL_LOOKUP EXT2_DIRECT HOST_ACCESS ALT_FORMAT RPC RPC_SETQUOTA BSD_BEHAVIOUR Bugs to [email protected] Squeeze (broken quotas): Quota utilities version 4.00-pre1. Compiled with: USE_LDAP_MAIL_LOOKUP EXT2_DIRECT HOSTS_ACCESS ALT_FORMAT RPC RPC_SETQUOTA BSD_BEHAVIOUR Bugs to [email protected] Could someone who has quotas working on Squeeze please let us know what your version output looks like? Hopefully this might help get to the bottom of this. Thank you, Scott Blaydes
That's what I get on Squeeze: Code: root@server1:~# quotaon --version Quota utilities version 4.00-pre1. Compiled with: USE_LDAP_MAIL_LOOKUP EXT2_DIRECT HOSTS_ACCESS ALT_FORMAT RPC RPC_SETQUOTA BSD_BEHAVIOUR Bugs to [email protected] root@server1:~#
Okay, another set of emails to my VPS support staff and I was told the kernel doesn't have journaling for journaled quotas compiled in. It was suggested to use normal quotas (usrquota and grpquota), but will this still work for ISPconfig, or will it break anything? Thank you, Scott Blaydes
I had the same problem and this is the solution: (My Server is Virtual Machine running on XEN) Run the following command: Code: ln -s /dev/xvda /dev/root In my case /dev/xvda is the root partition Greetings
