Thread: And the error comes from ...
PG7.1.3 on RH7.1; Tomcat4.0.3, jdk1.4.0 on RH7.2 on another box. When I run a particular query, catalina.out lists the following exception: java.sql.SQLException: ERROR: ltsWriteBlock: failed to write block 40984 of temporary file Perhaps out of disk space? Does this error reflect the problem on the web server computer, or on the backend (PG computer)? Thank you all. Mihai Gheorghiu
Certainly nothing to do with the jdbc driver.

I've already seen this error. At first I though that this was some other problem than disk space because the server had somethinglike 500M of free space. Finally, I monitored the diskspace with df during the execution of the query, and my querydid actually filled the whole 500M.

Thanks, everybody. It looks like my /var partition is 91% full. The server came pre-configured, while the /usr partition is used only 50%, and it won't grow. Can someone, please, recommend me a (safe :-) Linux utility that can reallocate disk space between partitions - if it exists?

I don't think that's a good idea.
You could link your data area into /usr/local. Here's how.
1. Shut down your database.
2. cp -Rp /var/path/to/data/area /usr/local/new/data/area
3. rm -r /var/path/to/data/area
4. ln -s /usr/local/new/data/area /var/path/to/data/area
Now you should be able to start up as though everything is the same.
Alternatively, you could just reconfigure postgres to think that it
lives in a different data area. That's more standard, but it might
break some scripts you have or something.

Just move the database directory somewhere else Dave On Tue, 2002-07-30 at 17:31, Mihai Gheorghiu wrote: > Thanks, everybody. > It looks like my /var partition is 91% full.
