Check the group quota that applies to your users. Maybe you have a group
quota set that limits the number of files (inodes) the group as a whole
can own? Can you show us the output from these two commands?
quota -v 5583
quota -vg 6
That shows the quotas for UID 5583 and GID 6.

I solved this and other quota-related problems by putting the .cache and
.pop files on a different filesystem with no quota. Not the best solution,
but it helped in our case.
