OpenProject 7.0.2 is running well on my Ubuntu Server 16:04.
I want to upgrade to the newest Version using sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade openproject, but I get this error:

Reading package lists... Done

The error implies that I don’t have enough space left, but that hardly makes sense. According to df, I have

• 1.1G free in /opt/
• 4.5G free in /
• 3.4G free in /home

The full output of both commands can be found here: [[https://pastebin.com/i3jGaumk]]

Is this an OpenProject problem?

Hi Thomas,

the packaged installation bundle contains a full ruby and node environment. The latter, with its huge number of small dependencies is often a problem with your free inodes. Even though 1GB should be enough space to upgrade OpenProject, you may be running out of inodes.

Can you post the output of df -i ?

I’m still looking into alternatives to shipping with the entire node environment, but since we have to preprocess our assets when a user decides to install openproject in a subdirectory (due to the required URL rewriting of the assets), we currently depend on it.

Best,
Oliver

Thanks for the quick reply.

Here’s the output of df -i: [[https://pastebin.com/6zzCVkkD]]

Weird, that doesn’t look too bad. I still believe that the node_modules are causing this. You are able to safely delete /opt/openproject/frontend/node_modules and retry the installation. The package should extract the remainder now.

If your installation is running for some time, its also possible that older ruby versions are still installed in /opt/openproject/vendor/ruby-2.2.5/ or /opt/openproject/vendor/ruby-2.1.X/ , which you could also try to remove prior to installing the package.

removing /opt/openproject/frontend/node_modules did the trick, thank you!
