i just tried to install jbuilder in my home dir (e.g. /home/me) and i got
the below error:
Preparing to install...
WARNING! The amount of /tmp disk space required to perform
this installation is greater than what is available. Please
free up at least 34640 kilobytes in /tmp and attempt this
installation again. You may also set the IATEMPDIR environment
variable to a directory on a disk partition with enough free
disk space. To set the variable enter one of the following
commands at the UNIX command line prompt before running this
installer again:
- for Bourne shell (sh), ksh, bash and zsh:
$ IATEMPDIR=/your/free/space/directory
$ export IATEMPDIR
- for C shell (csh) and tcsh:
$ setenv IATEMPDIR /your/free/space/directory
i have a 40gb hard drive and just recently set up my system, so i don't
know how this could happen. i don't remember the allocations that i did
when i installed mandrake, but i set it up for a server configuration and
don't believe that i modified it (much) from the default settings.
beside the solution prompted above (using the IATEMPDIR env), what are my
options?
can i delete all the files in /tmp? i saw that some of those files had
locks on them...
also, how can i quickly find out how much space is available on the hard
drive/partition? is there a quick command, or do i have to go to linuxconf
everytime?
my apologies because i do believe that someone asked a similar question not
so long ago about this on the list. but where are the searchable archives
for this list?
thanks...
