Hi Mike

If you are sure that there is plenty of space on disk, check that the
hobbit user has write access to the directory /opt/hobbitd/4.2.0/server/tmp/
As the hobbit user try to put a file into the directory:   echo "test" >
/opt/hobbitd/4.2.0/server/tmp/create_file_test.tmp

Next check that there are not "to many files" in that folder.   ls -l
/opt/hobbitd/4.2.0/server/tmp | wc -l
I had not tried to put a file in the directory, there is plenty of space.
When I try to touch a file in that directory (new file) I get the same
error. What's going on here?
