Moving lightttpd tmp files to another drive

[schafferm]

Hi..

A little background first. I have lighttpd running with owncloud installed and working. When I try to transfer a lot of files via owncloud into a directory, owncloud goes to work, and in the process it looks like it creates a lot of temp files in /var/tmp. Specifically a lot of sess_XXXXX files - until such a point that the directory/drive fills up (it's a small partition for freenas).

I tried changing the Upload directory in the webserver page for freenas - but files still appear here.

I noticed that lighttpd_Uploaddir still points to /var/tmp which is the genesis of my question below - but I'm not sure if that will fix the problem... Has anyone else come across this?

I tried the option in FreeNas to relocate it, however that does not work...



I'm trying to change the default lighttpd_uploaddir=${lighttpd_uploaddir:-"/var/tmp"} to point to a tmp directory on one of my mounted drives.

Should I put the following statement into the Auxiliary Parameters under Webserver as

lighttpd_uploaddir=${lighttpd_uploaddir:-"/mnt/drive1/tmp"} ? or am I missing something?

try create a file in a folder with OwnCloud .user.ini and write in it:

Code: Select all

upload_tmp_dir = /mnt/drive1/tmp

Thanks... That didn't solve the problem, but found someplace else that this is a known bug? for now set service to run as ROOT - which I know is not advisable...

Hmm
What is lighttpd_uploaddir=${lighttpd_uploaddir:-"/var/tmp"} where you find it ?

You use full version?
