No Space for tmp files
|
John
I have messed up and need a pointer to fix my mess.
I left the Tail of the spots.log file running. Now wsprdaemon is giving errors "..no space for tmp file' at line 729. What directory on mt Pi 4 can I purge to clear my mess? John |

Stop WD EXecute: rm -rf /tmp/wsprdaemon/* Start WD I have messed up and need a pointer to fix my mess. --

That did not work for me.
the exact error is: /home/pi/wsprdaemon/wsprdaemon.sh: Line 729: cannot create temp file for here-document: No space left on device This occurred 15 times after WD -s. I assume there is one for each real channel. and one more at the bottom for line 3691 I see this when I do WD -s just after WD -a John |

Then you need to clean out /tmp which is a separate file system from /tmp/wsprdaemon WD -z rm -rf /tmp/* WD -a That did not work for me. --

I did wd -z
rm -rf /tmp/* I got a list of sum system type files and some with lots of numbers, but many showed bussy. I did sudo rm -rf /tmp/* got cannot remove /tmp/wsprdaemon device or resource bussy. ( even with the wd -z) ?? I thought that the tmp files were on RAM disk and would go away with a cold restart. John |

Maybe I misled you. Start by seeing the state of your file systems by executing 'df' I would expect that your will see that the /tmp file system is 100% full/; /tmp/wsprdaemon should be 10-30%% full most of the 2 minute wspr cycle. /tmp should be cleared by a reboot. WD doesn't clear the /tmp/wsprdaemon file system. It does delete old wav files, which would occupy the most space on /tmp/wsprdaemon. I only truncate or clear any log files created when you start WD, so if you run at log levels 1 or greater, eventually the /tmp/wsprdaemon file system will become 100% full. Fixing that 'logging fills up /tmp/wsprdaemon' problem is part of my work on WD V3.0. I did wd -z --

Rob,
the df looks normal. The OS is at 32%, all the other devices 1-3%. I will rebuild the OS. Thanks for all the hard work. John |
