   space left on device in /home/xxxxxxxx/public_html/wp-admin/includes/file.php

 * The error message suggests that your /tmp folder is out of space.
 * Depending on the hosting account you have, that may or may not mean that your
   account is out of space. It may be just that the /tmp folder on the server is
   full.
 * If you haven’t already, I would recommend contacting your web host. They can 
   probably fix the issue for you.
