"

Howdy -- there are a few possible causes for that.

The first thing I'd like to do is verify that disk quotas are enabled and working properly.

Can you paste in the output you receive when you go into System Settings -> Re-Check Config?

thanks for everything, I looked in the position shown and actually appears to me this "/ Linux Native Filesystem /dev/root User and Group Quotas Inactive Enable Quotas "

so it is inactive how can I solve the problem??

Many thanks

What kind of VPS are you using? For example, is it Xen, KVM, or OpenVZ?

And what is the output of the command mount?

the hypervisor is Esxi the Output of command Mount is :

On your Ubuntu system that's not working properly, what output do you receive if you run this command as root:

/etc/init.d/quota start

Submitted by zerocoldgm on Sun, 10/20/2013 - 02:46

this is the output

quotaon: Cannot stat() mounted device /dev/root: No such file or directory

Submitted by andreychek on Sun, 10/20/2013 - 08:46

Hmm, that's unusual -- the mount command shows that your root filesystem is on /dev/root, but that device doesn't actually seem to exist.

The quota tools need /dev/root to exist in order to work properly.

What is the output of these commands:

cat /etc/fstab
cat /etc/mtab
df -h
ls -l /dev/root

Submitted by zerocoldgm on Sun, 10/20/2013 - 09:17

this is the output:

cat /etc/fstab

Hmm, that's pretty unusual -- I'm not sure how it's using a device for the root filesystem that doesn't actually exist... however, I suspect that by creating a symlink, that we may be able to get the quotas working.

To do that, run this command as root:

ln -s /dev/sda1 /dev/root

Once you do that, are you then able to enable the quotas?

I had already 'adopted ores solution and the share is abilitava, but when I reboot the machine returned diable, and still had problems with the import of the backup, and this' problem vps OVH I read that others had found this thing

Submitted by andreychek on Wed, 10/23/2013 - 08:23

If that symlink goes away after rebooting, you may need to add that command into your /etc/rc.local file.

I would suggest adding these two lines into your /etc/rc.local:

ln -s /dev/sda1 /dev/root
/etc/init.d/quota start
