/dev/sda1 / ext3 errors=remount-ro,relatimeusrjquota=quota.user,grpjquota=quota.gr oup,jqfmt=vfsv0 0 1

Ok i fixed the above but now im stuck again...

WARNING -  Quotafile //aquota.group was probably truncated. Cannot save quota settings...

and

quotaon: Cannot find quota file on / [/dev/root] to turn quotas on/off.
quotaon: Cannot find quota file on / [/dev/root] to turn quotas on/off.

I can not fix this :x

Fix was

1) modprobe quota_v2 and check if the module was loaded ( lsmod |grep quota )

2) echo 'quota_v2' >> /etc/modules

3) delete the files previously created ( aquota.group aquota.user )

4) quotacheck -avugm
quotaon -avug

Had this same error this morning when I upgraded from Debian Lenny to Squeeze. Probably should do a full tutorial but too lazy/pressed for time.

Anyway, if you follow either of these tutorials and get errors, read on:

http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-set...n-debian-lenny
http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect-se...ispconfig-3-p4

Basically, I was getting the same errors as outlined above - everything was fine with my /etc/fstab file, made the correct edits, created the two aquota files, but was getting the same errors judgey was getting:

WARNING -  Quotafile //aquota.group was probably truncated. Cannot save quota settings...

And

quotaon: Cannot find quota file on / [/dev/root] to turn quotas on/off.
quotaon: Cannot find quota file on / [/dev/root] to turn quotas on/off.

So I followed these steps:

/# lsmod | grep quota
quota_v2                2133  0
quota_tree              5423  1 quota_v2

So it was running. Then:

/# echo 'quota_v2' >> /etc/modules

Then deleted the 2 files I had set up in the tutorials:

/# rm -f /aquota.group
/# rm -f /aquota.user

Then ran the two statements - here is the output:

/# quotacheck -avugm
quotacheck: Scanning /dev/disk/by-uuid/ffffffff-4444-5555-8888-999999999aaa [/] done
quotacheck: Cannot stat old user quota file: No such file or directory
quotacheck: Cannot stat old group quota file: No such file or directory
quotacheck: Cannot stat old user quota file: No such file or directory
quotacheck: Cannot stat old group quota file: No such file or directory
quotacheck: Checked 9068 directories and 81028 files
quotacheck: Old file not found.
quotacheck: Old file not found.

/# quotaon -avug
/dev/disk/by-uuid/ffffffff-4444-5555-8888-999999999aaa [/]: group quotas turned on
/dev/disk/by-uuid/ffffffff-4444-5555-8888-999999999aaa [/]: user quotas turned on

It seems to be working now. I'll report back if I run into any errors but it looks like this is the fix.
