    Hello,

    I am receiving the following cpanel error (towards the left hand side column) when I login into an account:

    Disk Space Usage Serious problem while fetching quota data (quota): Bad file descriptor (0) Megabytes.

    Please help,
    Thanks.

    Anyone? I stil don't know what went wrong all of a sudden. I did run /scripts/fixquotas through shell but that didn't fix anything either. Here are the errors I got from there:

    Installing Default Quota Databases...../var/tmp/aquota.user..../var/tmp/quota.user.....Done
    WARNING!!! Backup dir is set to /. Unexpected results may occur!!!!
    Quotas are now on
    touch: cannot touch `/var/tmp/quota.user': No such file or directory
    touch: cannot touch `/var/tmp/aquota.user': No such file or directory
    Resetting quota for cptest to 550 M
    No filesystems with quota detected.

    Try to run fix quota (/scripts/fixquota). You will need the root access of the server to tun fixquota.

    Yes, running /scripts/fixquotas do solved the issue. You will need your host company to use root access to run that script if you're on a shared hosting.
