I am unable to ping any url (for example www.google.com), neither any of the website is working. However, I can ping static IPs (E.g. 8.8.8.8). A little debugging showed that the issue is /etc/resolv.conf file which got corrupted. It has very strange file permissions.
ls -l shows question marks on resolv.conf
drwxr-xr-x. 2 root root 4096 Feb 17 05:59 request-key.d
-?????????? ? ? ? ? ? resolv.conf
drwxr-xr-x. 5 root root 4096 Dec 17 2015 rhsm
It has ? (question mark) everywhere. Its not letting me run any command for this file. Running any command (like cat, rm, file) gives a same error.
rm: cannot remove `resolv.conf`: Input/output error
I tried booting with a live Ubuntu image and mounted the file system. I got same results. Any pointers would be helpful.
