I'd put this in the news feed for the server, but it's not really news, just an interesting issue I found with the server (explains why it died before due to lack of disk space)

Code:
login as: si
[email protected]'s password:
Linux v1 2.6.26-2-amd64 #1 SMP Thu Sep 16 15:56:38 UTC 2010 x86_64

The programs included with the Debian GNU/Linux system are free software;
the exact distribution terms for each program are described in the
individual files in /usr/share/doc/*/copyright.

si@v1:~$ cd /var/log
si@v1:/var/log$ du -sh
du: cannot read directory `./exim4': Permission denied
du: cannot read directory `./apache2': Permission denied
du: cannot read directory `./mysql': Permission denied
15.1G    .
si@v1:/var/log$ sudo !!
sudo du -sh

Lulwut? Don't worry, we have disk space now ><

You forgot to paste your password. :P

Anyway, what's this mean exactly? That there was a load of programs which came with the OS that we didn't need and were hogging space?

Gah, I didn't scroll down. ><

So it was denied permissions to write to those directories and therefore thought it didn't have enough space? Or have I got the wrong end of the stick?

I guess I must be missing something obvious, what is it I'm missing? :3

The 15.1G, I think.

(Note, the VPS is limited to 15GB of space, IIRC)

The VPS has 30GB space, but anyone who looked at my current FB status would easily tell :P
