Title: Quotas panel shows free space as used
Post by: alejandro on January 10, 2006, 08:37:26 PM

Hi.
I'm downloading users' files to workstations to make a smaller user and configuration backup.
The plan is to upgrade the server (hardware and software)
I'll install SME 7b9 as I have tested it and is stable enough for my needs.
Problem is that a user's space is still declared as used, but I've deleted all files and mails at /home/files/users/"name"......
My server is sme v 6.0.1, with all the upgrades and some contribs.

I have deleted other users' files/mails and quota's panel is refreshed with the exact disk space used, but this particular user is more than 4gb an his directory is allmost empty.

any clues?

Are you using the contrib recycle?

Do you have verifyed the quota on server shell or using Windows?

I suggest you to use MC (Midnight Commander) on server shell to watch out what´s happening.

Or easier: you could use "du --max-depth=2 . " on user´s directory and see where are the files.

Good luck

MC is what I use to delete files when I finished downloading to WS

That will show an empty dir (0 kbytes)

I realized that files copied or created inside ibays by each user are assigned as a part of his quota, maybe a little confusing..... but logic!

thanks anyway jader!!!
