OMV6: cat: write error: No space left on device

1st Official Post

    Since I updated to 6.0-34 (Shaitan) I've been getting the following error:


    Code
    /etc/cron.daily/openmediavault-cron-apt:
cat: write error: No space left on device
cat: write error: No space left on device
cat: write error: No space left on device
cat: write error: No space left on device
cat: write error: No space left on device
cat: write error: No space left on device


    When I check the drive status I can see there is no space issue (/dev/mmcblk0p1 is my OS / boot drive):


    Code
    df -H
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev                  1.6G     0  1.6G   0% /dev
tmpfs                 401M   15M  386M   4% /run
/dev/mmcblk0p1         16G  8.4G  7.0G  55% /
tmpfs                 2.1G     0  2.1G   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs                 5.3M  4.1k  5.3M   1% /run/lock
/dev/md0              6.0T  2.2T  3.9T  36% /srv/dev-disk-by-uuid-42e5e537-02b1-42d3-98d3-602339b07afe
tmpfs                 2.1G     0  2.1G   0% /tmp
/dev/zram1             51M   50M     0 100% /var/log

    If I reboot the device and run apt upgrade I don't get any error.


    I've been using OMV6 for about 6 weeks now, through several upgrades.


    Thoughts?

    Changed the title of the thread from “OMV6: /etc/cron.daily/openmediavault-cron-apt: cat: write error: No space left on device” to “OMV6: cat: write error: No space left on device”.

    This seems to be your issue. How did you intall OMV?


    The suggested method on armbian is to run the script from here.

    It will remove zram and install the openmediavault-flashmemory plugin instead.
