Trying to resize a mounted ext3 filesystem I get this: # resize2fs /dev/vg2/bilder resize2fs 1.41.7 (29-June-2009) Das Dateisystem auf /dev/vg2/bilder ist auf /usr/share/locale/de_DE.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/e2fsprogs.mo eingehängt; Online-Grössenveränderung nötig old desc_blocks = 2, new_desc_blocks = 2 resize2fs: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden beim Versuch, Einhängpunkt /usr/share/locale/de_DE.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/e2fsprogs.mo zu öffnen As the output is in German: resize2fs seems to thing the mountpoint of the filesystem is "/usr/share/locale/de_DE.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/e2fsprogs.mo". Trying the same with LC_ALL=C: # LC_ALL=C resize2fs /dev/vg2/bilder resize2fs 1.41.7 (29-June-2009) Filesystem at /dev/vg2/bilder is mounted on �+� ; on-line resizing required old desc_blocks = 2, new_desc_blocks = 2 resize2fs: No such file or directory while trying to open mountpoint �+� Same result, but other corrupt string used for mountpoint. Using e2fsprogs-1.41.6 it works as usual: LC_ALL=C resize2fs /dev/vg2/bilder resize2fs 1.41.6 (30-May-2009) Filesystem at /dev/vg2/bilder is mounted on /home/bilder; on-line resizing required old desc_blocks = 2, new_desc_blocks = 2 Performing an on-line resize of /dev/vg2/bilder to 5388288 (4k) blocks. The filesystem on /dev/vg2/bilder is now 5388288 blocks long.
