Inodes Limits - Error: Disk quota exceeded

Issue

The account [name: wordptkj] [domain: wordpressking.xyz] has unlimited storage, but on an attempt to install any theme and plugin on WordPress of that account it shows an error message that [installation failed] Disk quota exceeded.

Environment

• CloudLinux OS 8
  
  

Solution

• Check the user quotas:

  # id wordptkj 
  uid=1019(wordptkj) gid=1023(wordptkj) groups=1023(wordptkj)

  # cl-quota | head -2; cl-quota | grep 1019
                              id           inodes_used   inodes_soft   inodes_hard
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              1019            3146            3000            3300

• Either remove some temporary unneeded files to free up inodes
  or

• Disable the limit (set it to 0) in CloudLinux Manager

  

Cause

User hits configured inodes limit.
