No space left on device...

[Anon]

Hi !

I'm using PHP and MySQL on a Linux Apache Server to store pictures. The user uploads the files which are then stored on the disk and in the database (name and location on the disk).
That's working for a while... and I soon get errors :
the reports say that there's not enough space on the disk any more to store the pictures, whereas this is wrong (I have 300 Mo free).
Then, if I empty the /tmp and /var/tmp directories, it works again, but not for long !

Can anyone help me ?

Thanks a lot.

Matthieu.

A quote from the manual:

"Files will by default be stored in the server's default temporary directory, unless another location has been given with the upload_tmp_dir directive in php.ini. "

Try changing this location to a location that does have enough "free space left on device"
