Debian apt-get update error

WLS-ITGuy

After running apt-get update I get the following error:

Failed to fetch http://mirrors.linode.com/debian/dists/stretch/main/i18n/Translation-en Write error - write (28: No space left on device)

Odd part is I am only using 35% of the total disk on Linode but if I run df -h I get this:

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/root 16G 16G 35M 100% /
devtmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /dev
tmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /dev/shm
tmpfs 2.0G 202M 1.8G 11% /run
tmpfs 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock
tmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs 395M 0 395M 0% /run/user/0

I can see that DEV/ROOT is full but I cannot identify if those files are needed. Any kick in the right direction would be helpful.

What does

du -h --max-depth=1

Show?

Basically the / partition you have has only 35 M free. Those other big files are needed for your system to run. YOu need to find some folders or files you can get ride of on your /home partition or temporary logs.

That's your root partition and it is full.

you ran that from the www directory. that doesn't help you.

run that from /

cd /
du -h --max-depth=1

then head down the rabbit hole chasing the largest subdirectory until you find the culprit

Add sudo to the front of that so you can get all the folders info.

So: sudo du -h --max-depth=1 | sort -hr

Your logs should be cycling. Is this a log for a single day?

@jaredbusch doubtful

@jaredbusch doubtful

I know the logs are set to cycle by most applications. No idea how your system was setup originally.

But to answer your question, stop the webserver service apache stop I think for Debian.

Delete the log

Start the webserver again service apache start

The apache process will recreate a new log.

I'm downloading it now so I can go through it and verify that it isn't all one day. Can I delete it and create a new .log file and go on my way?
