So.. add more disk space? 10gb is going to be very tight with rebuilds. Even a digital ocean $10/month droplet has 30gb.

hello Jeff, I have a VPS from OVH(SSD 1), it’s seems like easier to install Discourse at DigitalOcean. When i skip the error, i have this message, is it normal ? are they sure ton install correctly and fastly Discourse with DigitalOcean cloud server ?

I don’t know if the problem you’re having is similar to the one I had, but this got me past my “space” problem. https://meta.discourse.org/t/upgrade-memory-and-image-problems/66977/5?u=mittineague

I ran through the exact same problem as @AHI and just upgraded the VPS for more disk space. Glad to see this can now be avoided :slight_smile:

Salut @_vincent, oui mais bon, je trouve que les offres DigitalOcean sont meilleur qu’OVH… T’as pris quel offre toi ? @AHI Go to DigitalOcean

For anyone else looking for a quick way to free some disk space, I freed up about 4GB by cleaning up old linux kernel headers: sudo apt install byobu sudo purge-old-kernel

You have less than 5GB of free space on the disk. You will need more space to continue
