Full Discussion: ls hangs on a directory
Operating Systems Linux Red Hat ls hangs on a directory Post 302273730 by wazzu62 on Monday 5th of January 2009 03:47:46 PM

ls hangs on a directory
Running Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.1 (Tikanga) 2.6.18-53.el5

Trying to do an 'ls' of a sub-directory and the prompt never returns. Same problem running a find command as well.

I have done an fsck on the file system (no problems) and can view other sub-directories on this file system.

I can run an strace ls or and ltrace ls and get a response.

I suspect there are too many files in the sub-directory but could use some help.

thanks,

Jon

SYNOPSIS

       fsck -F cachefs [-m] [-o noclean] cache_directory

DESCRIPTION

       The  CacheFS  version  of the fsck command checks the integrity of a cache directory.This utility corrects any CacheFS problems it finds by
       default. There is no interactive mode. The most likely invocation of fsck for CacheFS file systems is at boot time from	an  entry  in  the
       /etc/vfstab file. See  vfstab(4).

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -m	       Check, but do not repair.

       -o noclean      Force a check on the cache even if there is no reason to suspect there is a problem.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Using fsck_cachefs to Force a Check on the Cache Directory

       The following example forces a check on the cache directory /cache3:

       example% fsck -F cachefs -o noclean /cache3
