Topic: pbm size of files in ls

[globalsi]

Hello,

I have a problem with some files on my SME 7.6.

When I list some files with 'ls', I'v got a strange result... (2 differents sizes on same line)

Code: [Select]

-bash-3.00# ls -lsah /home/e-smith/files/users/smeuser3/home/
total 4,8G

If I copy these files to another server, they take their full size (16 Go...)

I ran a fsck during a reboot but the partition seems clear.

Do you have any idea what's going on?

That's is because you're including "s" on command.
That way it tell you the BLOCK SIZE.
Any file with one byte will be reported as 4K (block size).

Use "ls -lah" and you'll see just one size for those files.

The problem is not the 4k .... it's the huge difference : 0 and 2,2Go of my outlooks files. (line 4->8 of the 'ls')

this question has nothing to do with SME and is OT in this forum

[globalsi]

Thank you for moving the message.
When I read your post I thought you would close the message

I know "ln -s" can generate this 0k files. See this:

the jmjmjm.iso is a ln -s  (symlink)
the jmjmjm2.iso is a ln (hardlink).

Have you tried to copy file to another location to see if the problem remains ?
Have you any problems with those files (are they accessible or not?) ?
Could you make a test and rename those files to remove "; " from name or even better, create a new shortname as "test-2-jader.pst" and report ?

These files are not links (ls -lsah show them)
If I rename the file to the same location, the problem persists (test-2-jader.pst).
If I copy these files, the problem persists (test-2-jader-copy.pst).

These files are old backups, I will delete them.
I think this problem occurred when I had automatic backups and the disk was full.
