Unable to allocate space on the server for the avatar.

Cameron June 1, 2020

This has worked when we originally set up, but now I am changing mine again it is spitting up this error

"Cannot attach file myprofilepic.png: Unable to allocate space on the server for the avatar."

 

 

I am using the page https://[serveraddress]/secure/ViewProfile.jspa

 

The server still has ~30GB free of 80GB

 

Any ideas on what could be causing this?

There are a number of reasons you might get this, but the starting point is to know whether you are on Windows or a Unix-like system as we probably need to be looking at the file systems, and they are very very different across the two systems.
