Question USER denied login as OUT OF DISK SPACE
Hi,

I am trying to install Oracle 11g R2 on Oracle Enterprise Linux (5.4 version, which is basically some Redhat version).

I have created oracle user, when I tried installing, the installer erred out saying there is no enough space. I logged out and when I logged in back, user oracle was denied login saying "GDM error: User out of disk space error. Not able to open HOME directory for read/write".

What could be the reason? How can I set it right?

My guess would be that you are out of disk space.

Have you tried doing this?:

Code:
df -h

pay close attention to the space either on / or /home

Perhaps something is eating up space, and you just don't know it. I run this command when one of my servers does something like this

Code:
sudo du -h -x -d 1 /

See what directories are what size.
