We had what we thought was a hard drive crash - the drive went into a read-only state and the server crashed. It would not even allow a remote reboot. We finally got someone in there this morning to do a hard shutdown.

The system came back and appears to be working now. But we will continue to keep an eye on it.

If you are like me, you will have a bunch of WUs that need uploading. Please have patience as everyone will be uploading at the same time, so there might be delays.

Welcome back. I've sent one batch up, and all seemed well - I'll do the others in stages.

Did you see the specific error message on uploads?

16/11/2020 14:43:17 | NumberFields@home | [error] Error reported by file upload server: can't open log file '../log_mimas/file_upload_handler.log' (errno: 9)
Might be helpful.

I don't see any errors in the logs on the server side. I looked at my client event log and see the same error about not being able to open file_upload_handler.log. The time stamp on those error messages are during the time the server was being brought back up. I am guessing it was during the file system check when the drive is made read only. But if you are still seeing these kinds of errors, let me know and I will dig deeper.

No, it goes right back to the start of the problem:

14-Nov-2020 20:29:27 [NumberFields@home] Error reported by file upload server: can't open log file '../log_mimas/file_upload_handler.log' (errno: 9)
is the earliest on this machine.

I think it can happen if/when you run short on disk space?
