Some contextual information: we are a web development company and most of our clients do not have direct FTP access.
One of our clients, however, required FTP access to a certain folder. We gave him an additional FTP account which has worked fine. During the past few weeks, however, the quota keeps breaking.
There are only 3 files with a total of roughly 10MB stored in the subfolder and the quota has been set to 250MB. Despite all of this, the FTP account shows as 'full' and uploads keep restarting due to this fact:
The only way to solve this problem for me is to use /scripts/ftpquotacheck --force, which temporarily fixes this issue. For some reason, however, after a random amount of time, the problem persists again.
I have not 'solved' this issue by running ftpquotacheck through cron every daily, but as you might imagine, this is not really a solution.
Could there be anything that is causing this problem? Can I do something to prevent this?
