            Bug ID: 90815
           Summary: [220] [journalctl] fails to open journal files
           Product: systemd
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: general
          Assignee: systemd-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: bluewind at xinu.at
        QA Contact: systemd-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

My computer crashed and afterwards I was unable to read my journal. journalctl
returns the following error and no log entries:
Error was encountered while opening journal files: No data available

I was also unable to run other journalctl commands like --disk-usage --verify
or --list-boots. I downgraded to 219 and was able to read my journal again and
bisected the issue to 7b300be75e6d5755778dd7da63e7147866f21351 (sd-journal:
return error when we cannot open a file).

journalctl --verify (from 219) tells me that I have some corruption. The 3
files mentioned are timestamped May 1 2015, Jul 14 2014, Jun 2 2015.

(of 16777216 bytes, 54%).

I have not tested if journalctl from 220 actually worked before the crash.

Is this a bug or is this an expected outcome of the mentioned patch?
