Bug ID: 502290
Summary: Check and repair partition does not show error, and
does not try to repair
Classification: Applications
Product: partitionmanager
Version: 24.12.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: andr...@stikonas.eu
Reporter: feder...@kircheis.it
Target Milestone: ---
I had a partition with an error, executing Check/Repair showed an error, the
detail windows showed:
----
Check and repair partition ‘/dev/sda1’ (1,00 TB, ext4)
Job: Check file system on partition ‘/dev/sda1’
Command: e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda1
Check file system on partition ‘/dev/sda1’: Error
Check and repair partition ‘/dev/sda1’ (1,00 TB, ext4): Error
----
When executing the same command from the command-line, I got
----
sudo e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda1
e2fsck 1.47.2 (1-Jan-2025)
The filesystem size (according to the superblock) is 244190385 blocks
The physical size of the device is 244190208 blocks
Either the superblock or the partition table is likely to be corrupt!
Abort? yes
----
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Find a corrupt partition
2. Execute Repair/check
3. Verify that no details about the error are shown
OBSERVED RESULT
No details are shown, and there was no attempt to repair the partition
EXPECTED RESULT
The name "check/repair" implies that it would verify the partition and/or try
to repair it.
At least show the errors in case of error.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
After removing _y, I got the following output (after replying "n"), maybe using
-y is not a sensible choice when executing e2fsck (I do not now the tool good
enough to recommend something else)
