Repairing Startup Disk: The underlying task reported failure on exit.
I'm running a G5 dual 2 ghz PowerPC with 2.5 ram with OS X 10.4.11.
A quick rundown: I've had some crashing and dropouts of apps. nothing too extreme but not as smooth as it should be. I ran OnyX (which I do every few weeks) and it found a problem with the startup disk, it needed to be repaired.
After booting from my Tiger Disc and running Disk Utilities I got the following:
- overlapped extent allocation (file 12412030d)
volume bit map needs minor repair
the volume '*' could not be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit.
I tried this twice, repairing permissions in between (which I later read I shouldn't have done). I haven't noticed any data loss but I'm concerned. I don't have a complete bootable backup of the drive though most of my important data is backed up on an external drive.
(BTW: I'm gunshy of Discwarrior, before that $100 recommendation is made, as the one time before I used it, about 5 years ago, it fried my OS entirely and required a complete reinstall.)
What should be my next step? Any thoughts/suggestions?

Hmmm, only time I've ever seen that is if Norton Disk Doctor touched it first.
BTW, you might enjoy this DiskWarrior review/recommendation...

You must repair the HD, if Disk Utility or fsck should fail to repair it, your best bet is DiskWarrior from Alsoft, you'll need the CD to boot from if you don't have another boot drive...

But others that may work…

Repairing Permission Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
I am having problem repairing permissions, which is causing me some concern. I did install some updates in the last few days but am not sure this is related. When I try to repair the permissions, I generally get the message "Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit." . I have verified the disk and it is fine. At this point I have tried:
1. Booting from the 10.5 install disk and running disk repair (disk is again fine) and repair permissions (which throws up the same error).
2. Cloning the drive using SuperDuper, booting from the clone and trying to repair it. This throws up the same error.
3. Reinstalling the 10.51 update on the clone. The update fails saying some files could not be written to " \ ".
4. Checking the clone software update for any new updates. Interestingly, it shows I need to update to Compressor 3.02 but this update was previously installed according to the log file. Reinstalling it does not help.
I have just noted that when I reboot, I can sometimes repair the permissions successfully once (see the resulting output below) but if I try again, the error returns.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Permissions repair completeHi
The SUID messages are warnings, not errors, and can be ignored (harmless).
If Disk Utility can't fix your HD then you will need something like Alsoft's DiskWarrior or Micromat's TechTool Pro:

Recently had to restore system 10.5.8 Leopard startup volume using Time machine. After many hours of migrating additional important databases that were recovered from failing startup drive, everything seemed to be back up and running smoothly on a new WD 1tb Black drive. Right before I run timemachine again to backup the new revised seemingly stable startup volume, I choose to repair disk permissions using disk utility. Repair permissions failed with this error, The underlying task reported faliure on exit. I tried using the OS X DVD to repair permissions, Diskwarrior, Onyx, none are able to reapair the disk permissions. Although everything seems perfect I would imagine that the system will fail eventually. It's strange that I had no problems repairing disk permissions in the past on this particular system that was the most recent backup. What should I do ?
Repair permissions always reports a bunch of stuff. Ignore it if it says it completed successfully.
Also note that is it usually a waste of time (except maybe after a system upgrade). -
Disk Utility says "Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit"
So I decide to play around with Bootcamp for the first time, and I go through the install but it kicks me out, telling me there was some kind of HDD error. It points me to Disk Utility, and I click on Verify Disk, and then I get the following error:

The volume MacBook needs to be repaired.

So I do some searching, and Apple tells me that I need to reformat! ***?! There is nothing wrong with my HDD, or at least so I thought. No clicks, no shutdowns, nothing. Does this mean that soon my HDD might die? And if not, how the **** do I go about installing Bootcamp now?
Here's Apple's support document:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302411
Thanks much.
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.8)You don't need to reformat.
Put your first installation disk in and reboot, holding down the C key when you hear the chimes. When the installation program starts, start Disk Utility from the menu and select your system drive, then do a verify/repair from there.
The reason it can't repair it is because Disk Utility won't do a low level repair on the system drive in case important system files are moved. When you boot off the CD, your system drive isn't in use and can be repaired easily. -

The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit

Volume needs repairJust to be sure: are you checking using the DVD/CD? That is after having re-booted using the tiger DVD.
If not, do so. Disk Utitlity's results are more accurate when stared from another disk than the one currently being checked.
If the problem occurs using the DVD's DU and repair proves impossible then you have three options
Buy a disk repair software such as DiskWarrior (a bit expensive)
Clone your HD on an external drive, erase and install and then use the migration assistant to get most of the info back. (slow but safe)
Clone your HD on an external drive making sure the clone is bootable. check the external HD with DU, startup with the external HD, see if everything works well and then erase the internal HD to clone back. (a bit faster but less safe: some subtle errors can get carried over)
If you have any doubts don't hesitate to post back for more details and whatever you do: backup, backup, backup! -
The underlying task reported failure on exit - HHD problem
Hi !
I am contacting you because I have a little problem with my ibook g4.
As a matter of a fact, this morning - everything was normal yesterday, maybe a little bit too hot, but well, quite normal - I have noticed something a little bit weird (I am using Tiger, X.4.11), the clock won't appear anymore, as the w-lan logo,. on the upper bar of the desktop.
Well, I have launched Onyx, which says that it seems to be a problem.
Well, I run the Disk Utility, clicking on "verify Disk", and some moments later, a new window appears :
"Disk Utility stopped verifying “iBook” because the following error was encountered:
The underlying task reported failure on exit"
And on the summary, it was written :
"Verifying volume “iBook”
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Invalid sibling link_
The volume iBook needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair"
So, I would like to repair by clicking on the repair button, but which wasn't avaible.
So I have tried a boot from the Tiger cd, and launched the disk Utility from there : it lauch, and it stopped at the same step, but the "repair" button was avaible. I clicked on, but the same message, ""Disk Utility stopped verifying “iBook” because the following error was encountered:
The underlying task reported failure on exit" Appears also, so it seems impossible for the disc to repair it self.
So, I have tried something else, a boot in "safe mode", holding the Shift button during the booting. And well... the results are a little bit weird too : first one, the computer do not even mark it, the second time, the time I think it would have been proceed, the white screen with the searching apple appears, search, search for a while, and then, the computer just.... turn off.
So I am really disappointed, and in a hurry, beeing on my university exam time... I haven't really the time to fix it, but I haven't the choice, and I'm a little bit afraid that my computer has something really important...
Thanks a lot for helping,
Best regards,
T.

Disk Utility reports "Underlying task reported failure" when repairing a volume is a directory error which DU is not able to repair. The article linked above suggests the use of third party utility. If you have access to one of the following it might help:
Tech Tool Pro
DriveGenius
Disk Warrior
This error is often, though not always, caused by a failing of failed HDD. Do you have the original HDD that came with your computer? If so you might want to consider replacing it, because even if the directory is repaired the drive may not be able to hold the format and the corruption may recur.
Here are some other suggestions you might try:
• Download and install Applejack
• Restart computer holding down Command + S
• When Command line comes up type in
applejack AUTO
Let is run all five functions.
Another option would be to back up your Home Folder, then completely erase and zero out your HDD, reinstall the OS and restore your data from the backup.
Also, take a look at Kappy on Error -9972 and the suggestions there.
Good luck.

The underlying task reported failure on exit - what do I do next?
Hi,
I recently decided to verify my internal drive using Disk Utility. The programme went through the motions then I got the following message:
'First Aid failed
Disk Utility stopped verifying “Internal Drive” because the following error was encountered:
The underlying task reported failure on exit'
In the progress window it read:
Volume Header needs minor repair
The volume The volume I Drive needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
I have no idea what this means or what actions I need to take next - can anyone help me out?
By the way, everything seems to be working just fine otherwise apart from Front Row which hangs whenever I try to access media

Very worried of LondonHi there,
You need to boot from your Install disk to actually repair it.
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Tiger Install disc that came with your computer, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive. -

Can anyone help with this error please? I just had my apple for a week, it's Macbook Pro.... Thanks a lot.
CatherineHi Catherine,
Disk Utility can't repair a disk from which the system itself was booted.
To do a repair of your "Macintosh HD" put the OSX Install-Disk in your optical drive, restart the MacBook and press and hold down the 'C'-Key.
The system will boot from the OSX-DVD and will ask for the language.
After that the Installation Programm will (no worry), but don't install anything just choose from the Top Menu "Utilities" the Disk Utility and then you can repair your HDD.
Good Luck
Stefan

Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit - PLEASE HELP
After running Verify disc I keep getting the following message, What does it mean and how can I repair it? - the Repair disk option is always blanked out;
"The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair"Maybe make a clone backup of the entire drive to an external FW drive that you can boot from.
Cloning a drive with directory damage, or corrupt data will result in the exact same errors. If the original isn't able to boot, most likely, the clone won't be able to either.
Backups are to protect your data when trouble strikes. After trouble rears it's ugly head, it's too late for clones. Manual (drag and drop) copying of the file can be accomplished, as long as the troubled drive mounts.
Once the original has been repaired, then cloning is once again a good backup protocol. -
Error: The underly task reported failure on exit
I've searched around and seen something similar to that error in my title that people have dealt with. Though, I haven't seen a full error message.
I was trying to run Verify Disk in the utilities folder and I got the error below. The workaround to fix this is to use the boot DVD from Apple, but is this the same type of issue? I'm just trying to get some confirmation before proceeding. I think this has something to do with me trying out VMware Fusion and Parallels this weekend. Something got messed up in there and I'm not too happy about it. Anyway, a complete error message is below if that will shed light on anything for helping me and others. Thanks a lot!!!

Volume needs repairsdotbailey:
Your volume has very serious directory issues. As baltwo suggested, you need to use a third-party software like Disk Warrior, Tech Tool Pro or DriveGenius.
However, I suggest that you first make sure that you have an up-to-date backup of your entire HDD or, at least, of your Users Folder. You may need to reformat, zero all data and re-install if one of the above utilities is not able to resolve the issue.
The article Disk Utility reports "Underlying task reported failure" when repairing a volume gives more information.
Please post back with further questions, comments or an update.
Good luck.

Repair Disk Permissions Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
Hi All...
any idea about this error when trying to Repair Disk Permissions using "Disk Utility" :
"Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit."
No repair is made at all! It just stops right after being launched
It happens either when booting on the Leopard CD or on external FW drive...
Cheers guys!!riccopicco wrote:

I've been getting the same thing just after 1 week with this new system!!!
Someone help!!!
It sounds as if you transferred the errors when you migrated your files from the G4. Something in that old filestructure that is not right. It might be the ownership of a single file somewhere.
Have you considered DiskWarrior? -
Disk Utility will not verify disk because, "The underlying task reported failure on exit." Now what?
Disk utility will not verify disk because, " The underlying task reported failure on exit." The "repair disk" button does not light up. The report says that repairs need to be made to the hard drive. I have already checked permissions. What do I do next to get the repair process started? Also, I cannot find a defragmenting drive option in Disk Utility. Doesn't it exist?
You need to boot from the install DVD (or a clone of your internal) to run Repair Disk. Repair Disk will be grayed out, dimmed, because you can't repair from the same volume you are booted from.
EDIT: No, you do not yet need to use Disk Warrior or Tech Tool or do any reformatting. These steps might become necessary only if Repair Disk fails.
Unless you have very large video files, for example, there is no need to run any defragmenting utility. OS X does it all by itself on the fly.
Try Disk Utility
Start from your Mac OS X Install disc: Insert the installation disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
Click the First Aid tab.
Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
Select your Mac OS X volume.
Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk.
If you don't have the install DVD, try a Safe Boot. Hold the Shift key down at startup and give it much more time to boot than usual. It's trying to repair the drive directory.

Disk Utility - First Aid - The underlying task reported failure on exit
Disk Utility -> First Aid -> Repair Disk Permissions provides in red
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit'
This was a nightmare for me to fix, but after I learned how it was easy. If you get this error and you have not already restarted your computer, open you sharing preferences and make sure you ahve not set the everyone group to 'no access'. If you have change it and retry to run the permissions repair. If you have already restarted you will need to startup using your install DVD and then open terminal. In terminal type the following to fix your permissions.
chmod 775 /Volumes/'Macintosh HD'
This will change your permissions and you should be able then to get past the grey screen.
Hope this helps someone.Hi everyone, I believe my permissions are the problem.
I let someone change permission settings to share music files on their hard drive and mine and another mac (3 in total) yesterday. I seemed to work. I can't remember if I then shut down my mac or just closed it. Anyway last night I was trying to organise the music files and burn them to dvd. I also tried change the permissions as some of the files were read only. I though it worked. It seemed to be burning and the screen saver came up, I clicked to exit screen saver and it just went to black and back to screen saver and i couldn't go any further. I had to hold down the power button to turn if off.
I tried to turn it on and now it's stuck on start up gray screen with the loading wheel thing? just loading forever.
I used disk utility, verified volume and repair disk are ok, but verify permissions and repair permissions, I get an Error message "the underlying task reported failure on exit"
I opened terminal and typed in what tryjezus1 said,"chmod 775 /Volumes/'Macintosh HD'" and pressed return. Not sure if I should have pressed return or if I should have just closed the window?. Anyway I'm still stuck.
I only have the mac since march so I believe I still have phone support, but if anyone can help I'd like to try and sort this out myself.
