Start up error
« on: May 27, 2004, 08:01:59 PM »
Hi guys!

Amule is doing a great job, love the program! But after a months of good (..great) downloading, it will not download again...  ?(

This is the message I get (after a small crash) every time I want to start aMule:

 Failed to get file system statistics (error 2: No such file or directory)

All the files are not pressent anymore in my list and I cant download anymore. I don't really mind the files, but it would be nice if I could find them again.

Any ideas?

It seems to me like a kernel message, not an aMule message, an maybe not even an aMule prblem but something weird in the system configuration... anyway, it would be better if you or someone could confirm this.

move .eMule file and .aMule dir from your /home/user to somewhere else

See if you have *.met.BAK files on your temp directory and rename them to *.met
Still, I believe there's something weird on your kernel or the disk or... whatever :-)

Only see 1 client.met.bak file in /.aMule, I am pretty sure my files are still somewhere, because the content of my drive is bigger than you would expect without the aMule files.

Where can I find them?  (tried .aMule/Incoming + temp)
