Crashes and Out of Space issue?

Hi All,

We have come across an issue where we can not seem to build or even access Octopus via the GUI.

Having looked into the log we can see and error message for disk space but there is no restriction of space on the server (238 gig free) :-

14 WARN Outstanding Backup tasks were not completed before the next task was due to be scheduled. If this error persists, check the Tasks tab for any running Backup tasks, and cancel them manually.
2015-08-24 10:42:43.1278 94 ERROR Unhandled error on request: http://octopus.immediate.co.uk/nuget/packages/ by teamcity : There is not enough space on the disk.
System.IO.IOException: There is not enough space on the disk.

The service itself is crashing with the following, Restarting it to only crash again a few minutes later :-

Octopus.Server.exe
2.6.5.1010
551cc357
KERNELBASE.dll
6.1.7601.18933

C:\Windows\system32\KERNELBASE.dll

Any help in pointing us in the right direction would be most appreciated.

Thanks,
Chris

We brought the server back up by restoring the last good back up. It lasted four hours and then crashed again:

We’re going to bring forward our upgrade to v3, but it’d be nice not to have do it in a hurry. ANy ideas?

Update: There was a very simple answer to this one. We were out of disk space.

(We’d forgotten that the Octopus data directory was on a mount point, so the disk space was not displayed in the gui!)

Apologies for time-wasting
