Greetings folks,
I'm running CentOS5.3, DirectAdmin 1.33.7 and ProFTPD version 1.3.1.
In my daily logwatch log file email I get, most notably today's email, I saw the folowing error message and cannot figure out how to fix it. it's content is below:
cannot write ExtendedLog to fd 6: Disk quota exceeded.
How can I fix this error? i've looked at DA's messaging system for every user I have and noone has exceeded there disk quota. I asked my server provider and they say it may be do to disk quota's as well, but I cannot seem to track down the issue anywhere.
if anyone has suggestions as to how to fix this I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks.
 
The output of df -h shows:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5 222G 4.1G 206G 2% /
/dev/sda2 2.0G 36M 1.9G 2% /tmp
/dev/sda1 388M 47M 321M 13% /boot
Which means, disk quota is not exceeded according to my Mathematics...
2% on the first tdisk, not even close to being full...
 
Run "ls /home/ |xargs -n1 quota -s -u" and check that any "blocks" field never exceed the "quota" field next to it.
 
The output of the command I was told to run shows:
Disk quotas for user admin (uid 501): none
Disk quotas for user test112 (uid 517): none
quota: User backup doesn't exist.
Disk quotas for user techblog (uid 506):

So based upon that, does that mean something?

Well, it means that your ProFTPD distribution is wrong; there is no quota violation.

Great .. just the news I didn't want to hear. So then what would be your suggestion then?
Since this server is running DirectAdmin, could I maybe .. reinstall proFTPD you think?
I'm out of ideas myself and, don't want to continue to see this error as this means there's a problem I can't fix which that pretty much annoys me to no end.
I checked all of my users and DA shows no quota exceeded errors. it's unusual how Proftpd started coming up with this error all of a sudden and there seems to be no permanent fix for it thus far.
