Exception during world save! (ios failure)

[Xenawar]

Shard's been running fine for a long time. Today, I'm getting this on attempting to save in the pol.log

Exception during world save! (ios failure)

This is suddenly happening. It was not a problem before today. There were no .ndt files left over from a previous save and no permissions have been changed or anything. After this error .ndt files are left over of course, but the shard keeps running.

Any ideas?

Run a scandisk on the drive. Sounds like the harddrive is going bad

Do a .savenow and tell me what happens.
