    One of our resellers complains, that Disk Usage in client's CPanel does not work. And that is true - when you log in and right on the first page it comes up with Disk usage= 0.00Mb! Although if you go to page called "Disk usage" where you can see report per each directory - everything comes up correctly. Why then this first Disk usage does not work?

    P.S.: this particular client has got unlimited disk space anyway, but still wants this problem to be solved.

    Did you try running /scripts/fixquotas in shell? That's usually the fix for that type of problem.

    Well... The script gave me the result that "No filesystems with quota detected". As far as I understand that's the key, right? Is it easy to fix?

    Try to run the fix quota script on the server shell, in which your site is exist. If you have no permission of server shell then contact with your web hosting company to fix the quota issue.

    I am "the hosting company" :) and of course I tried to run fix quotas script. The problem is that that scripts says that: "No filesystems with quota detected".

    Go on, have a guess
    In which case, try WHM > Initial Quota Setup > OK

    Will you believe me if I say that it didn't help?
    WHM->Initial quota setup gave me back the following text:

    Installing Default Quota Databases...../boot/aquota.user..../boot/quota.user.....Done
    Quotas are now on
    Updating Quota Files......
    quotacheck: Can't find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.


    quotacheck: Can't find filesystem to check or filesystem not mounted with quota option.

    ....Done

    Actually, that helps a great deal. It means that your disks are not being mounted correctly. You need to ensure that all partitions in /etc/fstab that should have user quotas enabled have the ,usrquota switch added. Once changed, you'll most likely need to reboot then run the quota setup again.

    Disk usage doesn't appear to be counting add-on domains.
