Trying to delete directories under Windows 7 and getting error that I need permissions from Root/Icarus. Icarus is the name of my Unraid server.

So I telneted into Icarus and try to set the permissions of the directory I was trying to delete and receive the following error:

 

root@Icarus:/mnt/disk1/Backups# chmod -R 777 Jupiter

 

chmod: changing permissions of `Jupiter/Windows DreamScene/Bliss.wmv': Read-only

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Any suggestions?

Yeah, post a syslog! 

 

The disk may have been remounted as read-only due to file system corruption.  That's all I got from the tarot cards.

I experienced this a day ago as well. purko's description is what happened to me. I checked the disk file systems and it repaired it. Wiki instructions here: http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php?title=Check_Disk_Filesystems

Thanks - running the disk check commands now. I will run it on all the drives before trying to delete again.

Will let you know.

The link above says "Important Note!!! Do NOT run reiserfsck with the --rebuild-sb or --rebuild-tree switches, unless you are instructed to, by the instruction of a previous run of reiserfsck, or by an expert user! They are last-resort options, to repair a severely damaged Reiser file system, and recover as much as possible. They almost always leave the file system in worse shape than it originally was! "

 

So....any suggestions? I worred now to run --rebuild-tree.

You will need to run the --rebuild-tree, as instructed to by the previous run of reiserfsck.

Ok thanks - really appreciate all the help:

 

root@Icarus:~# reiserfsck --rebuild-tree /dev/md1

reiserfsck 3.6.19 (2003 www.namesys.com)

 

*************************************************************

** Do not  run  the  program  with  --rebuild-tree  unless **

** something is broken and MAKE A BACKUP  before using it. **

** If you have bad sectors on a drive  it is usually a bad **

** idea to continue using it. Then you probably should get **

** a working hard drive, copy the file system from the bad **

** drive  to the good one -- dd_rescue is  a good tool for **

** that -- and only then run this program.                **

** If you are using the latest reiserfsprogs and  it fails **

** please  email bug reports to [email protected], **

** providing  as  much  information  as  possible --  your **

** hardware,  kernel,  patches,  settings,  all reiserfsck **

** messages  (including version),  the reiserfsck logfile, **

** check  the  syslog file  for  any  related information. **

** If you would like advice on using this program, support **

** is available  for $25 at  www.namesys.com/support.html. **

Will rebuild the filesystem (/dev/md1) tree

Will put log info to 'stdout'

 

Do you want to run this program?[N/Yes] (note need to type Yes if you do):Yes

Replaying journal..

Reiserfs journal '/dev/md1' in blocks [18..8211]: 0 transactions replayed

 

 

 

Thanks everyone for your advice

 

That worked - I can now delete directories.

 

Took about 4 hours to run check and repair on a 1.5TB 7200rpm drive.

 

I'm going to for grins run the disk check on my other drives.
