Description of problem: I logged in this morning to find that I had no disk space, this was pretty surprising given that I have 1.5TB and last I knew I had about 250GB left. Then I eventually find: % du -sh ~/.beagle 243G /home/james/.beagle ...now beagle had been running in Fed-8, and was using nowhere near this level of storage. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): beagle-0:0.3.7-4.fc9.x86_64
If you have not deleted it yet can you see which sub folder is eating all the space? How much space does the ~/.beagle/Log use? Might be thats its gone crazy logging an error that keeps happening.
It's possible, when I did the rm -rf on .beagle it gave warnings after a bit with "stale NFS file" on a couple of the files in TextCache -- which was surprising as the FS is ext3 :) I eventually had to reboot and manually fsck to get rid of them, so it might have been that.
It just did it again: % ls -l /home/james/.beagle/Log/2008-07-21-15-24-48-Beagle -rw-r--r-- 1 james james 238810812416 2008-07-22 09:11 /home/james/.beagle/Log/2008-07-21-15-24-48-Beagle That's 238,810,812,416 == 223G There are a _lot_ of messages like (with different index numbers): 20080722 09:11:18.7356 24979 Beagle WARN: Skipping bogus message [file=/home/james/.evolution/mail/imap/jantill@<deleted>.Pr Security/summary, index=15268075, error=System.Exception: Unexpected end of file 20080722 09:11:18.7356 24979 Beagle WARN: at Beagle.Util.Camel.Decode.UInt (System.IO.FileStream f) [0x00000] 20080722 09:11:18.7356 24979 Beagle WARN: at Beagle.Util.Camel.Decode.String (System.IO.FileStream f) [0x00000] 20080722 09:11:18.7356 24979 Beagle WARN: at Beagle.Util.Camel.MessageInfo..ctor (System.IO.FileStream f) [0x00000] 20080722 09:11:18.7356 24979 Beagle WARN: at Beagle.Util.Camel.ImapMessageInfo..ctor (System.IO.FileStream f, Boolean content_info_load) [0x00000] 20080722 09:11:18.7356 24979 Beagle WARN: at Beagle.Util.Camel.ImapSummary.ReadMessageInfo (System.IO.FileStream f) [0x00000] 20080722 09:11:18.7356 24979 Beagle WARN: at Beagle.Util.Camel.Summary+SummaryEnumerator.MoveNext () [0x00000] ] 20080722 09:11:18.7358 24979 Beagle WARN: Skipping bogus message [file=/home/james/.evolution/mail/imap/jantill@<deleted>.Pr Security/summary, index=15268076, error=System.Exception: Unexpected end of file ...obvious doing a grep on the full 230GB+ file would take "a while", but I did do: % head -n 10000000 /home/james/.beagle/Log/2008-07-21-15-24-48-Beagle | fgrep 'Skipping bogus message' | wc -l 1428567 ...and given each of the above gives out ~7 lines, 1428567 * 7 == 9999969 ... so it's fair to say that might be the problem.
