Openafs-client says that it is running (this is on gentoo, btw), but when I try to cd to one of my afs directories, it tells me that the directory doesn't exist (since apparently the symlinks are broken). The only sign of an error with openafs is in dmesg: openafs: module license 'http://www.openafs.org/dl/license10.html' taints kernel. Found system call table at 0xc0347480 Starting AFS cache scan...found 0 non-empty cache files (0%). WARM shutting down of: CB... afs... BkG... CTrunc... AFSDB... FxEvent... UnmaskRxkSignals... RxListener... this is openafs-1.4.2 by the way, I had this working after installing openafs, but apparently something happened since it is not working now, although I'm not sure what I've changed Reproducible: Always
The dmesg you're showing suggests afs was started and shutdown subsequently. Are you sure these messages result from an afs startup only? Could you be more specific about the error? Something like (but not exclusively) "ls /afs" may give a better idea of what's going on. > Openafs-client says that it is running (this is on gentoo, btw) Glad to hear you're running gentoo :)
So I don't have an /afs directory (liek afs doesn't appear to be starting at all, which is what leaves me at a loss of where to start). I had been mounting all my stuff to /mit directory, but that is empty right now as well.

I don't really get that. I don't see how the /afs directory could not be there. The /etc/init.d/openafs-client script forcefully creates this directory with mkdir /afs 2> /dev/null in the cleanstart() function. It's only removed in the stop() function. Could you look into this? Thanks
Does this problem still occur?
Closing bug until more information becomes available
