As you can see, the directories are a few days old, and it seems like there are no processes owned by the whoopsie user that are that old, so it does seems like these aren't being cleaned up. We have a cronjob that was put in place and then disabled per the comments below which may be relevant here: # spm 2012-04-18, we're *rapidly* eating space. this seems to be the culprit # hence a rather aggressive find -delete to keep it sane # gnuoy 2012-04-18, disabled due to retracer expecting these dirs to exist. # 5 * * * * find /srv/daisy.ubuntu.com/var/Ubuntu\ 12.04/ -maxdepth 1 -type d -name 'tmp*' -mmin +180 -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/991696 Title: tmp files aren't being cleaned up To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/whoopsie-daisy/+bug/991696/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
