### My YunoHost server
**Hardware:** VPS bought online
**YunoHost version:** 11.2.23
**I have access to my server :** through the webadmin
**Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance ?** : no
**If yes, please explain:**
### Description of my issue
After adding some photos to Nextcloud, I noticed some sync error messages from Nextcloud. Postgresql service is not running. Diagnosis shows one major problem: 0B disk space is left. I know, this should never occur.
Is there any chance to free some space via SSH?
I removed a backup of an unimportant app per web UI without change of disk space, is there a command like “yunohost clean”?
Might it help to restart the server?
I hope for some helpful hints.
Thank you in advance

`sudo yunohost tools basic-space-cleanup `

This tool printed it was freeing 380MB, but after that still 0B free space left.

Did you stop the nextcloud client? It will fill the disk every time it finds a free bit.
Try setting nextcloud on maintenance mode and check the data/user/uploads folder. It’s a temporary folder you can remove its content but be sure no sync is in progress. If you have backups, don’t delete them, you may need them. I had a problem with mattermost because of out of storage and it refused to restart even after I fixed the low space issue. I had to reinstall it.

I managed to enable some Yunohost apps again, including Nextcloud and Synapse, by doing this:
- freed some disk space by deleting all files under …/nextcloud/data/USERNAME/files\_trashbin
- started Postrgresql service
I am not sure if nextcloud works properly bus it seems so. I had really deleted and readded a lot of files, before. I am going to learn about the trashbin configuration of Nextcloud.
Now, I have the remaining issue that the Yunohost web UI shows no installed apps, although they are apparently running. I will probably open a new thread about that.
