Help Needed - Problem listing accounts & editing accounts

[melsworld]

Hi,

I have just logged into my WHM

Click on list accounts and the accounts are not being listed

Click on Modify an Account and get the following error message

The / partition on this server is running out of disk space. WHM operation has been temporarily suspended to prevent something bad from happening. Please ask your system admin to remove any files not in use on that partition.

Below is printout of my filesystem

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda5 7.8G 7.8G 0 100% /
/dev/hda8 45G 16G 26G 39% /home
/dev/hdb1 73G 180M 69G 1% /backup
/dev/hda6 996M 34M 911M 4% /tmp
/dev/hda3 7.8G 2.9G 4.5G 40% /usr
/dev/hda2 9.7G 621M 8.6G 7% /var
/dev/hda1 122M 16M 100M 14% /boot
tmpfs 1014M 0 1014M 0% /dev/shm

Help would be appreciated thanks - Mel

If you SSH into the server and enter cd / what files do you see? If there are files there that are not needed they should be deleted to free up some space.

update:

Freed up some space in / directory

Error message has now gone when clicking on Modify an Account
but no accounts are listed and likewise on list accounts no accounts
are listed

Any suggestions what I should try/do next

Thanks Mel

Seemed to have problem solved by

1. Creating a dummy domain

2. selected list accounts - only dummy domain showed

3. Deleted the dummy domain

4. selected list accounts and all accounts showed
