fix the journalctl error
For prosperity, the good women and the beer, I hereby record the following
- open the console!
- get to be root
- examine the output of "journalctl -xn" and "dmesg"
- if you get this or something similar
Quote:
[ 12.713167] systemd-journald[113]: Failed to write entry (9 items, 245 bytes), ignoring: Cannot assign requested address
- verify the journals with "journalctl --verify"
- check if the logs are within sizes "journalctl --disk-usage"
- by then you have an idea of the corrupted logs - they show up iin red, no way you can ignore them
- open MC (yes THE MC )
- make a folder to MOVE the corrupted files to
- do a re run of the verify to make sure
- reboot
