Issue Can't create new folder with file manager

[onki]

Hi,

I am having serious issues with my plesk installation. When I am logged in as root I tried to create a folder within a folder of a Joomla installation using the Plesk file manager provided by the GUI.
When I try to do that I get the following message:
filemng failed: filemng: Error occurred during /bin/mkdir command.

The problem is that also Joomla is not able to create folders anymore which is a big problem.
I haven't chenged any settings in my domain settings.
I am using Apache with PHP 7.0.22 as FPM.

Any Idea what could be wrong?

Best regards
Onki

Hi onki,

in the first place, I recommend to repair your file - system permissions with the Plesk Repair Utility command ( logged in as user "root" over SSH ):

plesk repair fs -y -v

More informations on how to use the Plesk Repair Utility, can be found at the Plesk documentation at:

=> Plesk Repair Utility​

If this didn't already solved your described issue, pls. consider to open a bug - report, so that this report might be handed over to the Plesk developpers:

=> Home > Forum > Plesk Discussion > Reports​

Hi,

Thanks so far. It seems that the problem is related to not enough hard disk space on my server.
This is very weird because I was using only 1/3 of the capacity for years and nor all the sudden the disk is full. It seems that Plesk is not working after a server restart since mySQL cannot be started.

Is there any tool or advice to find out where all the data is located. I can't believe the disk is full or maybe a bad sofware is causing this issue creating tons of files.

Best regards
Onki

Hi onki,

Is there any tool or advice to find out where all the data is located.

Pls use for example the recommendations at:

=> How to determine file or directory taking much disk space?​

Have you checked whether there is a partitioning issue on your server? For example, I used a CentOS minimal install and then installed plesk afterwards. The CentOS install allocates space to different partitions than Plesk uses.

Hi,

when I run
"df -h"
I get this result:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/ploop13784p1 150G 150G 0 100% /
devtmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /dev
tmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /dev/shm
tmpfs 2.0G 205M 1.8G 11% /run
tmpfs 5.0M 20K 5.0M 1% /run/lock
tmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
none 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /run/shm

This shows me that /dev/ploop13784p1 is mounted as root and uses 100% of the capacity.
After entering
"du -h --max-depth=1 /"
this is shown in the summary:
80G /var
83G /

This means to me that the whole mount only uses 83G where /var is using 80G of that. Where is the rest?
Is it possible in Plesk to get a mail notification when 75 to 80% of the disk space is used or if the filling of the disk is irregular high (more that 1GB /h or so) ?
I'd love to have a more comprehensive usage analysis (graphical) such like treesize for Windows.

Best regards
Onki

If I'm not mistaken Watchdog extension can do this.
