I get the aforementioned error while attempting to do an operation. I have no idea as to why this is happening.
Did you try just doing a
./docker rebuild app
and seeing what happens? I think git pull is no longer required first.
Otherwise it looks like you may need to review your app.conf file. Have you edited it recently?
No I haven’t edited it recently. The website crashed yesterday and I ran the cleanup and then ran
rm /var/discourse/shared/standalone/backups/default/*
Then I rebuilt using ./launcher rebuild app
The website started working again after that and now it’s back to being dead.
Sorry I meant
./launcher rebuild app
So you are doing the the right things.
Have you had a look at Discourse Doctor?
Okay, so it is a storage issue. How do I make space now? I’m sorry but I’m a beginner.
I just ran discourse-doctor and I was left with multiple lines stating that my storage was full.
Do you have anything else on the server? If not, it’s probably discourse backups that you can delete.
Can you go over the process of deleting backups coz I’ve never really understood the process. I wanna be sure once and for all because I’ve been having storage issues for a really long time.
No, I don’t have anything else on the server.
A good first step is to run
./launcher cleanup
If that doesn’t work, try
./discourse-doctor
If you still have difficulties, you can look at deleting old backups from
/var/discourse/shared/standalone/backups/default
Let us know how these work out for you!
Hi @seshu_ram
Often, when containers are rebuilt, the process leaves orphan images. If you have rebuilt your container often, these images can take up a lot of space.
In fact, these orphan images recently took up nearly 100 GB + on our server until I deleted them. You can easily check.
Please post the output of:
docker images
Kindly post the output as text (copy-and-paste) using fenced markdown. Terminal screenshot images are hard to read on mobile.
Thanks.
Note:
Please note that launcher cleanup also prunes these orphans (based on 24 hours in the past, I think):
if tty >/dev/null; then
read -p "Would you like to attempt to recover space by cleaning docker images and containers in the system? (y/N)" -n 1 -r
echo
if [[ $REPLY =~ ^[Yy]$ ]]
then
$docker_path container prune --force --filter until=1h >/dev/null
$docker_path image prune --all --force --filter until=1h >/dev/null
echo "If the cleanup was successful, you may try again now"

This worked. My website is live now. Thank you so much. Thanks a lot for your time! That helped a lot.
Hey @seshu_ram
FYI and FWIW: You can remove this orphan image and reclaim a bit more disk space:
f3a4104c3f75
docker image rm f3a4104c3f75
The launcher cleanup process does not (as I recall) remove images less than 24 hours old.
Or, you can run cleanup again in a few hours, as you please.
我注意到最近的 Discourse 命令行更新占用了相当多的磁盘空间。
root@endoffice-b:/var/discourse# ./launcher cleanup
WARNING! This will remove all stopped containers.

这在两个实例上都发生了,另一个是 3.538GB ![]()
我通常会非常规律地在每次 Discourse 更新后运行 ./launcher cleanup,我大约每个月更新一次,所以这告诉我上次更新 本身 就占用了近 4GB 的磁盘空间。cc @falco @sam 这是我们应该担心的吗?![]()
我认为在过去几个月里,我们已经不可避免地两次更新了基础镜像。我们对此无能为力。看起来您服务器上的清理工作减少了 2 个基础镜像。
@anon43908006,有一个指南:
它涵盖了更改域名的许多注意事项,请查看。![]()
澄清一下,是关于升级总体规模的增加没什么可做的,还是关于最近基础镜像活动激增(未来影响不大)没什么可做的?
我很惊讶,我有很多用户很少的微型 Discourse,最近一直遇到这个问题。没有上传或其他东西。我想知道我们是否即将达到云安装会推荐下一个尺寸的磁盘空间(即 2GB RAM/1vCPU/50GB SSD)的时候? ![]()
我问了 @falco 关于这个问题,他说最近由于依赖项的更新,我们对基础镜像进行了很多更改,因此在过去约 6 个月的时间里,升级占用的磁盘空间比平时要多。
很抱歉听到您在更改域名时遇到了麻烦,@anon43908006。
因为这是#support,我鼓励您创建一个新的主题来解释您的具体情况:您的情况可能需要比这个主题更多的讨论,这个主题更多的是我们注意到的一种普遍模式。
如果您愿意,可以提及我(@maiki),我很乐意与您讨论您的网站情况。![]()
当我尝试备份 Discourse 时,我遇到了相同的 No space left on device 错误:
[2022-11-15 08:23:38] EXCEPTION: /var/www/discourse/lib/discourse.rb:131:in `exec': Failed to gzip archive.
gzip: /var/www/discourse/public/backups/default/forum-leasehackr-2022-11-15-080439-v20221110175456.tar.gz: No space left on device
我的备份和图片上传都设置在 DigitalOcean 的 Spaces 上,并且在过去几年里一直运行良好,直到最近几个月。以下是我到目前为止尝试过的方法:
- 我清除了 DO Space 上所有隐藏的多部分上传。我的 DO Space 应该有超过 100GiB 的可用存储空间。
- 我尝试使用以下命令重建和清理:
cd /var/discourse
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get autoclean
apt-get autoremove
./launcher rebuild app
./launcher cleanup
有人知道为什么我的备份仍然失败吗?谢谢!
