I'm not aware of that error having false-positives associated with it.

Common confusion on this point could result from having quotas enabled,
or possibly you're running out of space, then when you check free space
(after the error has occurred) the space has already been reclaimed from
the failed transaction and therefore it looks like you have plenty of
free space, but it disappears when you're running the process.

Also, 2x check that Postgres' data files are on the same partition as
where you've got the 50G free (I've made that mistake more than once)

If none of those help, provide more details.  Based on the detail level
you've provided, you've run out of disk space.
