Odd problem with Pure-ftpd on lvm volume.

OS RedHat7.3 Linux
lvm 1.0.3
pure-ftpd 1.0.11

I initially setup a logical volume with a capacity of 300 Mb. which is used to receive files transmitted via pure-ftpd. The initial space allocation was insufficient and I extended the lv by an additional 50 Mb. Now pure-ftp is reporting a "disk full error" when trying to upload files, however local users can add files to the lv without error.

I have absolutely no idea of where to go from here. It seems to me that either both should work, or neither should work, but not that one should fail and the other succeed. Any help or direction on how to investigate this would be appreciated.

Regards,
Jim

Did you just grow the LV?

You need to extend the FS using the respective FS resizing tool as well (resize2fs, resize_reiserfs, ...).

BTW: for ext2 the e2fsadm(8) command, which comes with LVM does both for you.

This doesn't really explain the local/remote difference unless:

- local users had root credentials avoiding the fs "reserved block count" to matter

- files uploaded where very large compared to the locally stored files
