Out of disk space. Unable to write content to file.

    I have just updated WordPress to 5.9 and updated the All-in-one plugin to the latest version, and I am getting an “Out of disk space. Unable to write content to file” message when trying to export a file.

    I have reviewed other support messages and reviewed possible solutions, but can’t resolve my issue. I have full access to the Plesk backend, so can update PHP and hosting settings as needed. All writing permissions and size requirements appear to be granted. It’s not a massive site, only 194 assets, so not sure what the issue is.

    I saw a reference to update 7.52 which **Fixed** the Out of disk space when exporting database.sql

    Has this returned due to WordPress 5.9?

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks

    At what stage do you see this error?
    Try installing and reinstalling the plugin in case there are permission problems.
    Check the size of the temporary wpress file in wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-wp-migration/storage/ when the error appears and report its size here.

    I have done as instructed. Deleted and re-installed the plugin. But still getting “Out of disk space. Unable to write content to file”

    I have checked the Storage file and there is nothing there other than two index files HTML & PHP.

    This is the link it’s trying to store: /wp-content/plugins/all-in-one-wp-migration/storage/x76fh5qa3gd8/88888gardens.*****.***-20220127-163912-wcbc8p.wpress (I have ***** out parts of the domain).

    On running the Export again it got to 79% complete before I got the message. Looking at how it was chunking the % complete numbers (14%, 34%, 52%, 65%, 79% complete) 100% could have easily been next – hence the file write attempt.

    I’ve run it a number of times and each time the chunk % is different (from above) and always stopping in the 70s.

    Any other suggestions?

    I just ran the Export on another one of my sites (running All-in-One WP Migration version 7.53 and WP 5.8.3) and as the site was being archived I saw the number of files per type…

    Preparing export
    Done creating an empty archive
    Done retrieving a list of WP content files
    Retrieving a list of WP plugin files
    Successfully retrieved a list of WP theme files
    Archiving 1055 media files – 99% complete
    Archiving 5695 plugin files – 99% complete
    Archiving 1742 theme files – 99% complete
    Done exporting database
    DOWNLOAD link

    On the site with issues, I only ever get:

    Preparing export
    Done creating an empty archive
    Retrieving a list of WP plugin files
    Retrieving a list of WP theme files
    Archiving 194 content files… XX% complete
    Error message…

    Does this give any more insight?

    Yes, you are hitting some limit there – it could be that there is a max file size limit. You can find more information about it here: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.posix-getrlimit.php

    I have reviewed the link you sent and I am not entirely sure what to do with that.

    How and where would I run a posix_getrlimit() PHP command?

    Did my additional notes give any further insight?

    I am using PHP Version 7.3.25 FastCGI application and have gradually increased the Max Post, File upload size and memory limit – they’re now at 50256M (which is huge).

    Still no luck when I refresh and export.

    I don’t have any other ideas to assist you with this.
