Re: [tor-relays] No disk space for new files created by Tor

I also find running "du -s ./*" useful for figuring out which directories are hogging files...

Huh, curious why it fails to write stuff to disk.

Does doing
echo "something" > tempfile
succeed?

/var/log/tor is hogging diskspace indeed :) perhaps then do
cd /var/log/tor
sudo rm *.gz

then do

du -sh *

to see if there are any remainder large files left there.

And seems /var/log/tor takes up 16G.

Assuming you're running a *nix system on your VPS, what does running
df -h
say?

Additionally, you can try getting a list of largest directories/files on your VPS, like so:
sudo -s
cd /
for i in G M K; do du -ah | grep [0-9]$i | sort -nr -k 1; done | head -n 1000 | tac

or just run the latter on your home directory (and don't use sudo in that case, of course.)
