CGI Error: unable to open auth file
I have just setup DBMan. It was possible to work for 1 day and now I have this error message:

CGI ERROR==========================================
Error Message : unable to open auth file: /custs/home/n/net6432/cgi-bin/auth/. Reason: Disc quota exceeded

I don't know why I have this message. You can try it on

Thanks for any replay.

Sounds to me like you have run out of space for this user on the system. If this is an ISP account, check with your ISP as to your quota. Run the following command to verify:
quota -v

Hope this helps.

Jamie,

I run this command, the output was

221 C-ya!

I don't know wat this means. I have a 25MB account and it is not more then 1MB stored on this account.

Can you tell me what this output means?

Did you run this command while ftp'd into the account? The command can only be run from a shell, not thru ftp.

The disk quota exceeded command definitely leads me to believe that you have a space problem, maybe not of your making.
