According to our system administrators there is more than enough space (more than twice the currently used space), but the data directory is a symlink to the real data storage. It seems CouchDB is checking the diskspace on the filesystem on which the symlink resides instead of the diskspace on the linked filesystem. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
