[ext2resize] Problems with resizing ext3 filesystem on LV

[Johannes L. <joh...@ik...>]

Hello!

I wonder if someone here could help me. This is not necessarily a
problem in ext2resize itself but I hope the error message tells you what
I am doing wrong here.

I am resizing an unmounted ext3 filesystem which is stored in a logical
volume (volume group made of regular partition). I ran e2fsck -f on the
filesystem and there were no errors. I am trying to do a resize from
39.37 GB to 57.26 GB (did not specify any size for ext2resize).

What I get (when running: ext2resize -v -d /dev/vg00/lvol1) is the
attached output ending in segmentation fault just a second or two after
starting ext2resize. Afterwards the filesystem seems to be more or less
intact (haven't really examined it further).

I did previously shrink this particular filesystem from 57.26 GB to
39.37 GB using ext2resize to use the freed space temporarily for disk
space re-organization. I left some safety margin when I reduced the
logical volume size. Now I have extended the logical volume again to the
original size and am trying to extend the filesystem as well.

Earlier I extended another ext3 filesystem successfully using ext2resize
so it is this particular file system causing problems.

The environment:

  Distro:	Debian GNU/Linux Woody (3.0)
  Kernel:	stock 2.4.18
  LVM IOP:	10
  ext2resize:	ext2resize v1.1.17 - 2001/03/18 for EXT2FS 0.5b


Thank you for any help!
