Whoops - out of hard drive space bug

Whoops - out of hard drive space bug
Today, I discovered that visiting the documentation for the Ultimate Web Scraper Toolkit led to a blank page. I went in via FTP and discovered that the 'index.php' file and 'index_en_us.mobi.html' file were both zero byte files. I backed everything up and went into the Barebones CMS editor and discovered that there was zero bytes of free space on the primary disk.

I logged into the OS and, of course, the OS was completely freaking out. I ran a script I use to wipe old data and that freed up enough space. Then I repaired the damage that Barebones CMS did to itself.

What is interesting is that I lost almost no data within the Barebones CMS framework (I only lost 'index.php', not 'index_en_us_page.php') but clearly I do need to do better on handling the scenario where the system is low on storage. Losing data is never fun to deal with.

On a positive note, I've also lost all my e-mail for the last 24 hours (most of it is likely caught up in the Intertubes). I didn't really need any of it anyway. Smile

Update: Successfully migrated the entire website over to a new server. Had a few initial bumps, but I've worked the issues out.
