Ftp error 553 Disk full

Getting following error, When I am trying to upload some files from my ftp account :

Ftp error “553 Disk full – please upload later”

But the quota for my account showing for uploading data we have sufficient space . Then why this error is coming ?

Let’s see the solution as follow:
This error is occurred because of there’s no extra space is available on server. Then login via ssh to your server and check the MaxDiskUsage as follows :

#grep MaxDiskUsage /etc/pure-ftpd.conf

The above will show the MaxDiskUsage 90, increase it to 99 and then restart pure-ftpd. If still it’s not working then check the disk space of server by using the following command and delete all the unused files, data from your server.

#df -H

with the help of df you will get the amount of disk space available along with each file name argument on the file system will get displayed. Filesystem, Total Disc Size, Total Disc Used, Total Disc Available, Use% – Total Disc Use in %, Mounted on – wherever does one mount this Filesystem.

For example:

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on

/home 144G 59G 78G 90% /
