Yow!  Did you see this?  I think you have more than one problem here,
and I suggest you work through them methodically, one by one, starting
with this one.

Are you trying to use /tmp in your root filesystem?  Bad idea.  Filling
your root filesystem can be quite inconvenient.  Most modern Unices will
let you use a virtual memory filesystem for /tmp.  I urge you to use
that.  It's traditional to clear out /tmp at reboot anyway.
