du won't show size of an unlinked file. fstat won't show filenames but will show inode numbes. If it is from a file that existed at startup and was then moved away, you could capture inode numbers of all files on the filesystem when starting (find /var -ls, the first number is the inode number), then compare with the INUM column in fstat. Or, if you change logs to syslog, and that fixes the problem, you have your answer... > On 25.06.2020 09:29, Stuart Henderson wrote: > > On 2020-06-24, Salvatore Cuzzilla <salvat...@cuzzilla.org> wrote: > > > After few attempts, I can't still don't understand what's going on > > > it seems that the only way to free up the /var folder is to restart the > > > tor's daemon. > > > > > > "pkill -HUP -u _tor -U _tor -x tor" didn't help ... > > > > > > Other ideas? > > > > Did you figure out what files are involved? > > > > If it's logs, use syslog instead. > > > > ------- > :wq, > Salvatore.
