/var/tmp full ?

[fromm]

Hi

Since installing 8.2 P1 I have had a consisten problem with my /var/tmp folder getting full. After approximately 6-12 hours, I start receiving emails from the server with the following content:

newsyslog: can't mkstemp logfile /var/log/cron.zf7jvnn: No space left on device

and another series of emails with

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/graph.py", line 486, in <module>
GenerateDiskspaceGraph()
File "/usr/local/bin/graph.py", line 477, in GenerateDiskspaceGraph
'GPRINT:used_avg:LAST:%5.1lf%sB Last\l'
rrdtool.error: Could not save png to '/tmp/graph/df-array_2-1d.png'

when checking the content of the /tmp folder i see ALOT of sessionid*** files created.

I have reinstalled 8.2 P1, and started from fresh. Running a jail with transmissionbt which utilizes an mount point to a point outside the jail, however the problem persists also when the jail is disabled.

Well, there may be several session files, but they use to be very small, are you sure they are the cause of the file system full?

My /var/temp folder looks like this with an "ls -al" command

Code:

Is it possible to increase the size allocated to the /var/tmp folder ?
