Hi @volume4schalkdigitalocean,
When you enter your Droplet and type in:
- df -h
what do you see? do you see a 100% full portion or not? If you see a full partition, you’ll need to find what has occupied all the space. If you have increased the space from 25 to 50 and this still persist, then maybe there is something that’s creating files and filling up your space for some reason.
Start with finding which partition is full and then go inside it and start digging to find what is causing the issue.
Hi there,
A quick fix would be to upgrade your Droplet and add some more disk space.

Alternatively, you can follow the steps from the answer here on how to find the folder that is using most of the disk space and possibly clear some files that are not needed:

Let me know how it goes!
Best,

Hello @volume4schalkdigitalocean
I’ve experienced the same issue with the Mastodon one-click app but the /tmp directory was the one that was getting filled with temporary files and causing the `no space left on device error for me.
After clearing the data the issue was sorted. Can you confirm that the /home directory is the one that runs out of disk space?
Regards
