The file: img_1260.jpgQ▒J@K���j�^ has duplicate cookie 24 This is a wheezy production server - I can run tests, provide information, but I'm about to purchase some spare drives and move the server to ext4 to protect the data. So if anyone wants information, now is the time to ask. I will reboot this system in a few hours - waiting for your response. ( this problem took 25 days to reappear - so you might want to get some information ). I'm an aging assembly programmer - I can do most things from the shell in Debian - I once did a little C programming - but digging into this code is beyond me. On the other had, I am able and willing to supply what every I can to help.
