Solaris 10 UX:lp: ERROR: No space to allocate temp files.

Hello,

Can someone help me with a solution for the following problem:

UX:lp: ERROR: No space to allocate temp files.

TO FIX: Clean up disk, or try again later.

when attempt to print a file. lpsched occasionally appears to go into a loop, repeatedly adding the message "Failed to open a print service file (No such file or directory)." to /var/lp/logs/lpsched.

The root file system includes enough free space and

/tmp also. The files to be printed are a few kb.

Running lpshut and lpsched fixes the problem temporarily.

lpsched writes " build info: 01/21/05:15:38:16" to

/var/lp/logs/lpsched when it starts.

Addition information:

When the error occur I see the the /var/lp/logs/request that the line

"F /var/spool/lp/tmp/hostname/659-1" has changed to

"F /var/spool/lp"

As far as I know /tmp is by default a subset of the swap, so swap and /tmp are being allocated from the same pool.One option for our is to monitor df every second on /tmp during your print attempt. To see how it fares.

Henry, thanks for your suggestion but I already did so. It only occurs every 3 or four days, and I don't see any change in the tmp or swap space.
