Kodi won't update- no free space?

Hi,

I have my Kodi configured using mysql databases. my RPI 3B+ has been running fine ( though a bit laggy in menus), but today it won't update my library. The status window in Kodi shows that there's no free space. When I SSH I see this:

Code

Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs                377276         0    377276   0% /dev

tmpfs                   382908         0    382908   0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs                   382908      2628    380280   1% /var
tmpfs                   382908         0    382908   0% /tmp

What should I do? It's a 16 gb SD card. At first wanted to work with network boot ( via synolgy NAS) but never got it working

Unfortunately the output doesn't represent the error situation. Activate logging and try to reproduce the error. At the log file we can see whether it's about SD (tmpfs) or RAM space.

I saw something about wlan as well, so followed this guide to blacklist wifi. But didn't help:

Create the file /etc/modprobe.d/raspi3-blacklist.conf by adding the following entries:

#wifi blacklist brcmfmac blacklist brcmuti

The rpi runs over (POE) Ethernet

Thank you, but this log doesn't tell what we need to know. It has no significant errors.

Activate log level 1 by creating the file "/storage/.kodi/userdata/advancedsettings.xml" with the content:

Code

<advancedsettings>
    <loglevel>1</loglevel>
</advancedsettings>

Reboot, reproduce the error situation and post "/storage/.kodi/temp/kodi.log".

I'm using an RPi3B+ with Ethernet only, too. There is no need do deactivate Wifi by blacklist any driver.

Maybe this would be a cause? I already c reated a swap file too ( if not enough memory) but this doesn't change anything either

No, it's Samba stuff. You can deactivate Samba at the LE services settings, if you don't use it. You can deactivate Wifi at the network settings, too, since you are using Ethernet.

If a swap file doesn't helps, it's maybe the size of tmpfs.

OK. I am using Samba for the streaming, so I'll keep that on.

Can I change the size of tmpfs?

I just find it weird that it has been working for the past 2 weeks without any issue.

I don't know. I did it for my Ubuntu Linux by editing /etc/fstab, but this doesn't works on LE.

Anyone else got an idea maybe? I'd really love to get this working again
