问题
I'm trying to make some C code with a simple gcc command in Ubuntu 10, but for some reason, I keep getting an error:
Cannot create temporary file in /tmp/: No space left on device
The thing is, though, I have plenty of space on the disk. Here is output of df -h:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/ 3.7G 2.4G 1.1G 70% /
devtmpfs 312M 112K 312M 1% /dev
none 312M 24K 312M 1% /dev/shm
none 312M 80K 312M 1% /var/run
none 312M 0 312M 0% /var/lock
none 312M 0 312M 0% /lib/init/rw
And df -i, in case you are wondering about the inodes:
Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on
/ 240960 195198 45762 82% /
devtmpfs 79775 609 79166 1% /dev
none 79798 3 79795 1% /dev/shm
none 79798 41 79757 1% /var/run
none 79798 2 79796 1% /var/lock
none 79798 1 79797 1% /lib/init/rw
I can also touch /tmp/test successfully, so I know I have space on the drive. Any ideas as to why gcc decided to throw a fit all of a sudden? (It was working earlier) Thanks beforehand.
回答1:
It looks to me that your /tmp directory is actually mounted as a devtmpfs which if I remember correctly is actually your computer's RAM.
You can always reboot and see if that helps, increase your virtual memory partition, or you can close running programs to see if that helps. Additionally, you can maybe delete some unnecessary files from /tmp as they are volatile to at least the life of the session.
回答2:
The intermediate files are too big for /tmp, so perhaps using another temporary directory (TMPDIR=/var/tmp g++ ...) helps.
