Cheers,
Muhammad
Run it again and say Yes. Your data won’t be touched, only old docker images will be removed.
Thanks. I did that but it does not seem working. Please see this snapshot. Sorry I forgot to attach this earlier. Thanks in advance
use either du -sh * and drill down into the large directories or ncdu if you have that package available, and try to figure out where exactly your space has gone
if it is user content you will probably have to increase diskspace on your server, but a common problem on servers that run docker for a while is that the default json logging engine never rotates the logs
[root@discocent discourse]# cd /var/lib/docker/containers/
[root@discocent containers]# du -sh *

that’s 5M of log for my idle test instance after a couple days, an active server will be larger. if you run other containers they might be logging even more.
You can configure docker to handle log rotation, check out Configure logging drivers | Docker Documentation …not sure why it’s not the default.
Hi @ssvenn
Many thanks. this is much appreciated. I have run the commands and i can see the following statistics. Would you mind to advise, how does this look like as I am unable to interpret I am afraid. Thanks in advance.
Sorry here is the lastest one please.
I have been surprised to see the occupied space. As we have very minimal activty on our forum. Thanks
ok, that’s not your problem then. Only one container and only 0.5MB of logs.
if you run du -sh * again in the / top directory maybe you will get a better picture of where the space has gone. I highly recommend ncdu to make it easier ( NCurses Disk Usage )
on my test instance docker uses about 8GB on images, check out Prune unused Docker objects | Docker Documentation for help on how to clean that up.
docker image prune -a usually frees up a lot of space for me, you might have to docker rm app to delete your old Discourse app container first. If you have lots of forum backups maybe you could download them to your local machine to free up some additional space.
another thing you should check is docker ps -a to see if you have any unexpected containers. Sometimes a failed rebuild will leave a dangling container that you have to remove manually.
[root@discocent /]# docker ps -a

[root@discocent /]# docker rm festive_margulis
festive_margulis
[root@discocent /]# docker image prune -a
WARNING! This will remove all images without at least one container associated to them.
Are you sure you want to continue? [y/N] y

Total reclaimed space: 2.33GBHave you checked your backups? It’s quite easy for them to fill your disk.
Salut @pfaffman Petite question à ce sujet. J’ai rencontré le même problème, j’ai donc exécuté du -sh *. Aucun fichier ne dépasse 1 Mo.
Je n’ai donc rien supprimé.
mais j’ai essayé docker image “prune -a”, espace récupéré : 0 octet.
Dois-je faire autre chose ?
Mon problème est lié à la dernière mise à niveau que j’ai effectuée et qui a entraîné l’arrêt de l’application.
Avez-vous vérifié /var/discourse/shared/standalone/backups/default ? C’est le coupable le plus probable.
Je travaille sur un nouveau produit sur https://www.pfaffmanager.com/. Si vous vous connectez là, cliquez sur le bouton liste des serveurs en haut, puis sur le bouton Gratuit ! Gérer le serveur existant, puis configurez-le pour votre serveur comme il le suggère (je l’espère), je trouverai la solution pour vous.
Merci, oui j’ai vérifié les sauvegardes. Total 5 fichiers * 16M. C’est petit, n’est-ce pas ?
J’ai aussi exécuté ceci

J’essaie votre suggestion maintenant le nouveau produit.
Oh. Vous n’avez que 12 Go. Ce n’est pas suffisant. Je recommande un minimum de 25 Go, mais idéalement 50 Go.
Ok compris. Il y a quelques minutes, j’ai augmenté le volume à 30, peut-être qu’il est encore en cours d’optimisation
Au fait, je suis confus par l’interface utilisateur de votre produit, mais j’ai aussi soudainement été intéressé par la façon dont vous allez déboguer à partir de là. hahaha. Je vous envoie un message privé pour éviter de enfreindre les règles ici.
