  • How is this a programming question? – GEOCHET Sep 16 '08 at 14:31

    Although it isn't a direct programming question, it falls under the umbrella of "of interest to at least one other programmer somewhere" (see the faq) since it relates to an environmental issue. – ZombieSheep Oct 13 '08 at 13:26

First off, here's your question, nicely formatted (surround it in < pre > tags to get this):

kt@rails-ubuntu:~/rails/ledger/releases/20080820144914/.git/hooks$ ls -al
ls: cannot access post-commit: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access update: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access post-update: No such file or directory
[snip]

Anyway, you need to boot up in single-user mode and run fsck. If you can't reboot right now, just move the directory to /tmp and forget about it.

(a) Looks like you have some kind of filesystem problems; I'd recommend you run fsck and see if it finds anything

(b) Really not a programming-related question, so off-topic here.

I ran into this problem and tried everything. Surprisingly the solution is very simple. Dude, this is what you do: Using GUI and not the terminal 1. Move all other files in that folder to a different one with a different name 2. Move the containing directory which should have only the problematic file to trash 3 Empty trash

and yes, it is that simple

I had the same problem caused by Aptana Studio working with rails more than once. The long term solution was to avoid using aptana to create files.
