Re: Out of disk space at 2 GB?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



By default 5% of the disk is going to be allocated for use by the root user. If you are seeing as a non root user that the disk is full, but when you become root you are able to write files, then this could be your issue. You can change the amount of blocks that are allocated for root, but using the -m switch with tune2fs.

Just a thought

On an ext3 filesystem, what would cause the system to claim it is out of disk space for a program writing information to disk, when df -h shows ample GB available and the file is being written to local disk rather than an nfs-mounted filesystem?
I believe the hard drive is good.
Ideas welcome.

If the application is old it might not have been compiled with large file support.
