Failed to open /etc/webmin/apache/site for writing : Disk quota exceeded

hello i receive the following error. Failed to open /etc/webmin/apache/site for writing : Disk quota exceeded

the output of the

root@ns1:~# df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/simfs      250G   96G  155G  39% /
none            410M  108K  410M   1% /run
none            5.0M  4.0K  5.0M   1% /run/lock
none            2.0G     0  2.0G   0% /run/shm

the tmp directory is empty.. there should be a bug .. somewhere..in webmin.. or virtualmin. hope the developers should give me a solution

Howdy,

It almost sounds as if the 'root' user has been assigned a quota on your server.

What is the output of these two commands:

quota -u root
quota -g root

root@ns1:~# quota -u root Disk quotas for user root (uid 0): none root@ns1:~# quota -g root Disk quotas for group root (gid 0): none

if this is the case i can not use the virtualmin and webmin at all .. so any modification needs to be done with ssh.. please instruct..

Sure, you can disable quotas... to do that, you can go into Webmin -> System -> Disk Quotas, and there you can click the "Disable Quotas" option.
