Re: [viewvc-users] Filesystem full?

ViewVC uses tempfiles for various things to reduce memory usage on your
server, but it certainly does everything in its power to clean up the
tempfiles it creates.

Do your server logs reveal that the ViewVC processes are getting interrupted
unceremoniously -- that is, in a way that would prevent the tempfile cleanup
from happening?  Is this file so large that Apache times out waiting for
ViewVC to operate on it, and has to kill off the ViewVC process?
