    Note: call resetquota with --useplanquotas to reset all quotas to plan defaults

    Run /scripts/initquotas, then /scripts/fixquotas.

    That should fix it - If not, you may not have the correct flags set.

    I would suggest your data center do the below (Wouldnt suggest you doing something like this early.)

    Edit /etc/fstab

    On all filesystems you want usrquotas on, (/home, / (root) check for the line with /home..

    LABEL=/home /home ext2 defaults,usrquota

    Make sure if its just defaults, make it like the above, defaults,usrquota - Then save /etc/fstab - And restart. Then do /scripts/initquotas , /scripts/fixquotas again.

    Default

    This seemed to work for me:

    Reboot your system and then run
    quotacheck -avugm
    quotaon -avugIt

    Then reboot again and run:

    quotacheck -avugm
    quotaon -avugIt should work then.

    then in WHM run: Initial Quota Setup
