No Diskspace after Update.

Before I updated, I was using less than half of the hard disk space available on my server. After WHM/cPanel updated I was using 96%.

Any ideas on what did that? And any solution to fix it?

Any help is appreciated.

 

When I do that, it only returns 1 file with a size of 0.

 

From the looks of it, it is the /var/cpanel/updatelogs/

That folder is 27 GB big. I am just taking a wild guess and will say that is not right.

Can I safely delete the two files in there?
update.1158130652.postinstall.log
updatesync.1158131040.log

Or is there a safe way to remove those files?

 

You are anything but short of knowledge, you helped me identify the problem.

Thank you very much.

I think I am going to delete those files an update again.

 

That solves that problem!!!

 

It also does not let me into cPanel anymore, just WHM. I get a Internal Error when trying to get into cPanel.

When I try to access it from within WHM, it gets me to the beginning fo the page and hangs there.

 

wow, this page is really screwed up. I replied to you twice and they are above you.

Anyways, I deleted the files and when I df my disk usage, it is at 100% now.... odd.

 

I do get an error when I try to du the root directory. which I think is odd.

it says "du: `./proc/10984/fd/4': No such file or directory"

my /usr directory is almost 4 gigs, but thats the next biggest one.

 

Wow. So, I don't understand how after I delete 37 GB of stuff, the disk actually has LESS space than before.

I have no clue what to do, the du command shows that I should have a normal amount of space....but df shows I have 0 remaining.

I have no clue whats going on.

 

So, I think I got it.

There was a script that didn't stop running that just kept stealing resources and writing logs files.

I figured it out, stopped the process and immediately my disk space came back.

so, YAY!!!

Thank you so much for your help
