Quota problem

[sford999]

In my /usr/local/cpanel/logs/error_log I have this:

quota: Cannot open quotafile /home2/quota.user: No such file or directory
[2013-04-02 15:55:15 +0100] info [cpanel] Quotas are not enabled
[2013-04-02 16:11:09 +0100] info [cpanellogd] Unable to load summary files: /var/cpanel/bandwidth/jmgcarpe.hour, /var/cpanel/bandwidth/jmgcarpe.5min
repquota: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/root: No such file or directory

root@server1 [~]# ll /dev/root
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Mar 30 13:14 /dev/root -> /dev/sd
root@server1 [~]#

The /etc/fstab file

# <file system>	<mount point>	<type>	<options>	<dump>	<pass>
/dev/sda1	/	ext3	errors=remount-ro,usrjquota=quota.user,jqfmt=vfsv0	0	1

/dev/sdb	/home2	ext3	usrjquota=quota.user,jqfmt=vfsv0	0	0
/tmp             /var/tmp                    ext3    defaults,bind,noauto        0 0

I tried

root@server1 [~]# ln -s /dev/sda1 /dev/root
ln: creating symbolic link `/dev/root': File exists
root@server1 [~]# ln -s /dev/sda2 /dev/root
ln: creating symbolic link `/dev/root': File exists
root@server1 [~]#

How can i stop this error?

Thanks in advance

Odd one, what is the contents of /etc/mtab and what is your running kernel?

This can be closed as I have figured out the problem

The fix

root@server1 [~]# ln -s /dev/sdb /dev/root

Always the simple things that are missed
