Hi!

In my latest weekly periodic run I had the following:

------- start of forwarded message -------
From: Spidey Root <root>
Date: Sat, 19 Jun 1999 03:30:01 -0400 (EDT)
Subject: freed.dyn.ez-ip.net weekly run output

Cleaning up kernel database files:

Rebuilding locate database:
locate.code: stdout: No space left on device
0

Rebuilding whatis database:
------- end of forwarded message -------

First, "No space left on device"?? Which device?? stdout? 

I've tried to simply to:

root@freed [10:12am] spidey# cd /etc/periodic/weekly/
root@freed [10:12am] weekly# ls
120.clean-kvmdb*        320.whatis*             999.local*
300.uucp*               330.catman*
310.locate*             340.noid*
root@freed [10:12am] weekly# ./310.locate 

Rebuilding locate database:

/: write failed, file system is full
locate.code: stdout: No space left on device
0
root@freed [10:17am] weekly# df
Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd0s1a     31743    28254      950    97%    /
/dev/wd0s3     531164   478568    52596    90%    /dos
/dev/wd0s4a    969663   876982    15108    98%    /home
/dev/wd0s1f   1416167  1235597    67277    95%    /usr
/dev/wd0s1e     29751    17998     9373    66%    /var
procfs              4        4        0   100%    /proc

So I clean the /tmp and I get:
root@freed [10:19am] weekly# df
Filesystem  1K-blocks     Used    Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd0s1a     31743    22845     6359    78%    /
/dev/wd0s3     531164   478568    52596    90%    /dos
/dev/wd0s4a    969663   876982    15108    98%    /home
/dev/wd0s1f   1416167  1235597    67277    95%    /usr
/dev/wd0s1e     29751    17998     9373    66%    /var
procfs              4        4        0   100%    /proc
root@freed [10:19am] weekly# ./310.locate 

Rebuilding locate database:
0
root@freed [10:27am] weekly# 

Ok.. so it was because the /tmp was full..

Humm... should I symlink /tmp to /var/tmp? (/usr/tmp is already
symlink to /var/tmp...)

Second, why the '0'?

thanks.
