Squid, SARG and inodes

Monday, 19. September 2011 10:09

Ok… this has happened to me twice, and I forgot I solved this problem the first time so I just wasted some time figuring this out again… so, I figure I’ll post so the next time I google, maybe I’ll find my own post…

The Problem:

Squid, and various other processes start crashing and the like reporting no space left on device.  You check all your mounts and there is plenty of space everywhere.

Aggrevating Circumstance:

You are running SARG and you have a client or the like that likes keeping daily reports.. and you prob have several months of them.

What Happened:

A daily report for SARG creates tons of files and you have basically blown through all your inodes for the disk, which unfortunately you cannot increase (ext2/3).

You can see this be issuing the following as root:

df -i

Solution:

Start deleting some of those daily reports… I went from 100% full on a 20G /var partition to 15% by deleting about 4 months of these reports… Only other solutions involve backing up, fdisk’ng disk with more inodes and restoring…

Hope this helps…

IE 10 (really?) and Zimbra

Friday, 26. August 2011 6:56

We are getting reports of people having issues with IE10 and Zimbra…. please, please don’t use IE10 as of yet, since it is still in Beta and we are all still trying to recover from IE9…. :-) Its not support by us or Zimbra…

As a side note, FireFox (which in its own way is now getting slow and bloated) and Chrome are better browsers for Zimba… You won’t get faster than Chrome, since the browser was built from the ground up with applications like Zimbra in mind…
