New Box MySQL out of space?

[DaGeek]

I have a brand new box. After loading a few SMALL sites ( 5 or 6), Plesk fails with:

ERROR: PleskFatalException
Unable to connect to database: mysql_connect() [<a href='function.mysql-connect'>function.mysql-connect</a>]: Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

I did some digging and found that mysql is out of space??? Again - BRAND NEW BOX...

Tailing the mysql error log:
[root@hosting ~]# tail /var/log/mysqld.log

Before I have them rebuild the server - yet again - does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Did you try to check free diskspace and inodes on partitions of your server with 'df' and 'df -i' commands?
