    humm

    do the following as root:

    1. cd /home
    2. touch quota.user
    3. touch aquota.user
    4. quotacheck -magun

    this will take some time. After this.. reboot the box and then do a /scripts/fixquota

    this will sure help. let me know if that dosent. err.. be careful with the commands. at any point of time you have a confusion let me know.. Dont just shoot out.

    Is you Kernel, fstab and rc.conf set up for quotas?

    easyhost, he was having the quotas for his users.. so it means that ... or maybe i guessed that he should have been having those entries.

    and for pc-driver; you need to see if the kernel is having quota support.. usually a c-panel server should be having that.. and also update the /etc/fstab file for the entry of /home as below:
    =======================
    LABEL=/home /home ext3 defaults,usrquota 1 2
    =======================

    then create the files quota.user and aquota.user at /home. Give them 755 permission and execute quotacheck.

    this is the way it normallly works; and if in any case their is a problem; being my moral responsibility to have made your server "CAPUT" i will personally look into the issue and correct it myself.

    Default Fix for freeBSD

    i'm on freebsd and had a problem where the Quota would be in affect but it wouldn't display properly in cPanel. Therefore, it was difficult to conveniently monitor disk usage of accounts and get proper bandwidth figures since most showed up as "Unlimited"

    at the command line as Root (via SSH)

    touch quota.user
    then
    quotacheck -agu

    and I refreshed cPanel and it all worked fine after that.

    I hope that helps someone

    cPanel info:
    WHM 9.4.0 cPanel 9.4.1-C72
    FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE - WHM X v3.1.0

    FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE - WHM X v3.1.0
    it worked on my freebsd 5.2.1 ...
    but still show the msg as follow
    "No Filesystems are mounted with quota support !!

    Under freebsd you must edit /etc/fstab and turn on quotas.
    Note: make sure your kernel supports quotas before doing this.
    After you have remounted your file systems with quota support,
    re-run this script.
    Note: call resetquota with --useplanquotas to reset all quotas to plan defaults
    Resetting quota for user to 10 Meg....Done
    "

    so i should skip the msg or ?
