Rob was trying to check on a directory, and was getting a "no recoverable versions". He wasn't sure if this was because his directory was actually on a completely different grid (perhaps testgrid), or if somehow enough shares had been lost to make the directory actually unrecoverable.

The 'check' button should let him ask this question, but going to /uri/URI/?t=check (where the button ought to be displayed) failed. My hunch is that the line that says "object size =" (which requires a fetch of the SSK mutable file) is causing the whole page to fail to render.

It would be nice to fix this.

I might have fixed this.. there's code in source:src/allmydata/web/info.py in the MoreInfo.render_size method to tolerate UnrecoverableFileError. I need to test that this is enough.
