Kodi won't update- no free space?

1st Official Post

    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      7976    374932   2% /run
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".

    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.
