Im running ISPConfig since May... and i noticed some problem with disk space.. it is on a virtual machine with a 100Gb virtual disk, the last 2 month it was on somewhere like 80Gb.. i felt it was strange, my clients didnt use so much space but.. with linux you never know... The last week the disk space was on 90%, 92%, 94%, 98%... today i get a message "not enough space" when i was trying to send mail.. so i had to really focus on that problem.. (late than never..) I tried everything, log files, fine, 1Gb.. tmp folder 50Mb, /home/www websites folders as espected 15Gb.. then i check the "/home" folder... 87Gb. Checking inside, the /home/ispconfig/tmp (dont remember) folder has lots of zip files randomly named around 70Mb each, total something like 80Gb.. What are those zip files?? i delete them and now my HD is on 25Gb, excelent !
These .zip files are created when you do a backup. You may delete thrm from time to time with e.g. a cronjob.
You could create a litle cron job using find: http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7040&highlight=/usr/bin/find
I modified a lot of cron jobs and scripts to make it run a bit more friendly. I told you if you can add this to future versions so nobody will fight with useless files on the future..
Sorry for the "back to life"... I was checking again the bugies zip files (i had to create a cron job to delete them..) and i found something i believe is not ok.. Data: The files are on /home/admispconfig/ispconfig/temp They are named f879b847438e98604d2e2dc4df8f2d69.zip like random generated filenames. They are 470Mb each. They are generated daily. Inside they have the usual backup structure: - backup.dat 21 bytes - web354_db1.sql 663 bytes - web354_log.zip 157209K - web354_user.zip 157209K - web354_web.zip 157209K Note: the site id 354 is a deleted one, its on the recicle bin. Then.. i realize the similar 157209K, so i opened one to see whats inside.. i was almost shoked when i found the /root folder inside the zips Maybe there is some bug on the backup script, when the site folder cant be located it backup the root folder? i dont know if that can be a security problem.. but i dont like the idea of the /root folder ziped anywhere.. can you check it somehow?
