[SOLVED] corrupted files

Hello,

I have a big problem with corrupted files.

I don't exactly know why but when I shut down my computer (embedded), some files are sometimes corrupted on the next computer boot.

I possibly thought that the problem due to files which are still open when the computer power off.

Did somebody already encounter the same problem?

I don't know if the problem should be resovled if I update the kernel?

Thank you for your help!

can you post the errors messages ? How do you know files are corrupted?

Size of these files : 0kb

And it is show like that on a "ls": nameOfMyFile.ext Input/output error.

Can you see any error message in /var/log/messages?

Yes,

kernel: [205.244751] input: AT Translated Set 2 keyboard as /class/input/input3
kernel: [206.866784] input: ImPS/2 Generic Wheel Mouse as /class/input/input4

But I don't know if it is dependant.

I solved my problem:

- File input stream not correctly closed and
- Add a commit buffer cache to disk (sync)
