[Server-devel] Server-devel Digest, Vol 70, Issue 7

[Tony Anderson]

Hi,

I am not sure why you addressed the server-devel mailing list. I don't 
see any connection with what you are doing and a server. If there is, 
that could be part of the problem.

With an XO as a standalone system, what you did should have worked.

However, you might want to find out if the datastore is the culprit. You 
may also have installed too many activities.

The activities are in /home/olpc/Activities. Check this folder to see 
how big it is.

This command: rm -fR /home/olpc/.sugar/default/datastore uses -fr not 
-fR which might be part of the problem.

I would do the following:

cd /home/olpc/.sugar/default
rm -rf datastore/*

Then you can do:

ls -l

to see if the folder is indeed empty.

If you have too much space allocated to the Activities folder, I would 
remove them one at a time from the list view.

You can check allocation of space using the command:

df -h

Within a specific folder such as Activities or datastore, you can use

du -h

to get a detailed breakdown of the disk space in use. The -h puts the 
numbers in more readable form.

I hope this helps.

Tony
