Forum error when uploading file: Failed to write file to disk

Taoz

I'm getting a "Failed to write file to disk" error when trying to upload a png file.  Tried again, same error. I uploaded the same file yesterday in another thread without any problems.

Tried with another png but that worked OK. 

Just tried again but this time it just keeps saying  "Uploading..." without any error message.

Uploads have been failing off and on for a few days now. Sometimes they work; sometimes they don't. Just like forum notifications will not work for several hours and then they work again, only to fail again for several hours later.

Daz has been made aware of all the issues currently going on.

OK, thanks, hope things get back to normal soon.

Well that explains why I can't upload an jpg image with my post

IceCrMn

maybe we managed to fill the storage drives on the image server?

I'm still having issues with the icons. Firefox shows garbled text too small to read, Chromium shows nothing.

Also, does anyone have a problem with the site not deleting message drafts, when you decide not to post a comment?

Yes, that and often after I post a comment the draft will remain... that oddity has been around for over two years, but has become a lot more common in recent months.

That's been happening for YEARS now.
