Was the filesystem mounted read only? What does the mount command say?

This could be an NFS mount where the server is only sharing it RO.

Can you show us the output from:-
Code:
df filesystem

As an alternate, are there other filesystems in play, e.g. is your filesystem in question /a/b/c/d/e, but there is a filesystem /a/b/c and /a/b/c/d/e is mounted underneath? if so, did they mount in the correct order, or has /a/b/c just over-mounted it and perhaps that is full.


We need to see more output before we can help you more.
