Unable to install packages due to storage issue (amount unsuccessful)
by SuzuBell from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5038H)
I am trying to install an R package on Ubuntu 16.04 R. I have been able to install several packages, but currently, in my R session, when I type:
Code:install.packages("devtools")I receive:
Code:Fatal error: cannot create 'R_TempDir'Upon issuing theCode: tempdir() command in R, I see that my temporary directory is located at Code:tmp/RtmpD54Esf. I tried: Code:rm -r tmp/RtmpD54Esf. But the problem remains.
I also tried Code:df -h which results in:
Code:Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 32G 0 32G 0% /dev
tmpfs 6.3G 9.7M 6.3G 1% /run
/dev/sdc2 54G 52G 4.6M 100% /
tmpfs 32G 1.8M 32G 1% /dev/shm
tmpfs 5.0M 4.0K 5.0M 1% /run/lock
tmpfs 32G 0 32G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/sda1 2.7T 1.7T 945G 64% /mnt/disk3
/dev/sdb1 2.7T 73M 2.6T 1% /mnt/disk4
/dev/sdf1 2.7T 2.2T 397G 85% /mnt/disk2
/dev/sde1 2.7T 1.9T 683G 74% /mnt/disk1
/dev/sdc1 511M 4.7M 507M 1% /boot/efi
tmpfs 6.3G 40K 6.3G 1% /run/user/1004I am not sure if the problem is that Code:/dev/sdc2 is full. It appears to not be a directory. I tried Code:sudo umount -f /dev/sdc2 and Code:sudo umount -l /dev/sdc2 but still the problem persisted.
I have searched for several hours but most suggestions to fix this error revolve around erasing contents in the temp directory and unmounting the largest space from df -h. I feel I have tried both these suggestions and am still seeing the error. I do not have lots of Linux management experience and was hoping that by asking this question and following advice very carefully, I can identify if I may be misinterpreting the advice usually available. Thank you for your suggestions!
