Plesk CP will not load on server that has worked fine for a year.

It has been a great week for Plesk related problems and I wanted to thank Igor for his previous help and I hope he can get me looking in the right place figure out this issue.

I log in and out of my Plesk 9.5.4 mail server to manage accounts and add emails to the SA and Magic Spam whitelists. Last night all of a sudden, when I try to access the CP, I get my usual SSL cert error and I click Proceed Anyways (in Chrome) and it just sits there and does nothing. I have let it sit for 10 min or so and still nothing. I then SSH'd in and restarted plesk (/etc/init.d/psa stop /etc/init.d/psa start) and I tried to access the CP again. I followed my earlier routine and it sat on the SSL error page for a minute or so, then the CP loaded. I have had to do this 3 or 4 times today and each time it worked. Now it is not. I stop/restart plesk and then try and access the CP and it just hangs there.

I have root access to the server, so I can look at any specific logs to troubleshoot it, I just dont know where/what to look at.

Any tips or fixes?

Thanks in advance!
 
Turns out my /tmp partition was full from a 1GB repo_transport_tmp file that was 3 days old. I deleted it and now it works perfectly!

Thanks for the tip!
