Ext3 is a journaled file system and maintains a journal file to prevent metadata corruption. Due to its wide testing base and relative simplicity, the file system is considered to be Quiet Stable if compared it with other file systems,but it is not completely immune to crashes. sometimes you might receive some errors when using a Ext3 formatted disk, you may receive error that system doesn’t find any journal on the file system. As a solution, you have to reinstall the system. In such situations, you need to check the status of your backup whether it is working and updated recently or not. But if you observe any backup related issues, Linux recovery tools are to be used .
For an instance, while attempting to mount your Linux based hard disk, you might come across the following error message:
“ext3: no journal on file system”
The system fails to boot and Data becomes in accessible. If you boot the system somehow, you may observe that some of the files and folders are missing from the system.
Among various reasons possible for this behavior, some of them are as below:
· File system is severely corrupted
· No or corrupted journal file
· You have recently updated the kernel but the process ended abruptly
To try resolving the issue, follow these steps:
· Boot the Machine using an installation drive and access the Rescue Mode. Mount the existing installation and reinstall the improperly installed kernel package
· journal file can be created by executing the below command:
tune2fs -j /dev/yourpartitionid
· If above measures fail, try repairing the file using the command "fsck". Boot the system using an installation disc and access the Rescue Mode. While making the system unmounted, run fsck for all the hard disk partitions except the swap partition.
If these measures don’t help and your data still is not accessible, use Linux recovery software for successfully recovering your lost data. Linux data Recovery applications incorporate high end scanning algorithms to scan the logically crashed media to recover data while maintaining their integrity.
