After a successful installation _ all OKs and before going past the setting up of the config we get this error-

The session partition is full. It is not possible to login at this time.

Please notify server administrator.

What does this mean? and how can we fix it?

Thanks

You've run out of disk space?!?

At least it *thinks* you've run out of disk space which is not always the same thing.

There's a bug in some PHP versions on Linux (and probaly other Unices aswell) where disk_free_space returns false when the free space is very large (larger than what can be stored in a C long int variable). In that case, even if you have tons of free space, it simply returns false (i.e., no free space at all).

If you are really sure you have free space in the partition that holds your $CFG->datatroot directory, then edit lib/setup.php and comment out the following lines of code (it seems they are going to be removed in the 1.9.x version anyway, see MDL-19222):

        // Need to disable debugging since disk_free_space()
        // will fail on very large partitions (see MDL-19222)
        $freespace = @disk_free_space($CFG->dataroot.'/sessions');
        if (!($freespace > 2048) and $freespace !== false) {
            echo '<html><body>';
            echo '<table align="center"><tr>';
            echo '<td style="color:#990000; text-align:center; font-size:large; border-width:1px; '.
                '    border-color:#000000; border-style:solid; border-radius: 20px; border-collapse: collapse; '.
                '    -moz-border-radius: 20px; padding: 15px">';
            echo '<p>The session partition is full. It is not possible to login at this time.</p>';
            echo '<p>Please notify server administrator.</p>';
            echo '</td></tr></table>';
            echo '</body></html>';
            die;
        }

Saludos. Iñaki.

Same result - all OKs then error message.
After several tries tried the latest weekly release and it installed fine and correctly- using it without problems now.

I've solved the problem by editing the lib/setup.php. Only delete this lines:

//// LINE 423 TO 434 /////

if (!(disk_free_space($CFG->dataroot.'/sessions') > 0)) {
                echo '<html><body>';
                echo '<table align="center"><tr>';
                echo '<td style="color:#990000; text-align:center; font-size:large; border-width:1px; '.
                    '    border-color:#000000; border-style:solid; border-radius: 20px; border-collapse: collapse; '.
                    '    -moz-border-radius: 20px; padding: 15px">';
                echo '<p>The session partition is full. It is not possible to login at this time.</p>';
                echo '<p>Please notify server administrator.</p>';
                echo '</td></tr></table>';
                echo '</body></html>';
                die;
            }

And it will continue installing normaly.

I have upgraded to 2.0 from 1.9.10 and getting the message:

The session partition is full. It is not possible to login at this time.
Please notify server administrator.

I have enough space on my server.

Where can I edit this line in version 2.0?

 

Thanks in advance.

I am pretty certain that the whole concept of sessions has been changed in Moodle 2.0. I think you might be better off looking at either the General forum or the Developer's forum than here.

I had the same problem this morning while upgrading from 1.9.6 to 2.0.2.

I located the code that needs to be disabled in \lib\sessionlib.php

After disabling lines 345 to 347 the install proceded normally.

The lines to comment out are:

if (!($freespace > 2048) and $freespace !== false) {
print_error('sessiondiskfull', 'error');
}

I hope that this helps someone.

Well, it certainly helped me when I hit this same problem after updating to the latest weekly version. I had kept no personal record of this customisation. Serves me right!

What that says is to change line 345 in /lib/sessionlib.php

from

345: if (!($freespace > 2048) and $freespace !== false) {

to

if (!($freespace > 2048) and $freespace !== false and $freespace !== null)

which seems cleaner than just commenting out the whole error message suggested above. Thanks!
