At seemingly random times I get the error message "Failed to write image file (disk full?)" when saving an image. My disk is certainly not full, there are over 200 GB free. It does not seem to be directly related to Pharo, it happens randomly with the latest Pharo images, with early Pharo images and even 3.9 images. The annoying thing is that the image on the disk ends up cropped to about 5 MB. Of course such a cropped image cannot be opened anymore. As a workaround I found that if I save the image while the VM is still open under a new name it works again.

Any network drives involved (see discussion on the Squeak-dev list)? Michael

I also encounter this problem. I am using the last VM I found on John's website. Cheers, Alexandre On 14 Jan 2009, at 10:09, Lukas Renggli wrote:

I suspect that this is a problem of the Mac VM I am using? I was using 3.8.20beta1U for a while now, but now I am back at 3.8.19beta2U. However the exactly same problem happens on that version of the VM. I think I have to go further back and try 3.8.18beta4U.

I know that Philippe encounters these random problems as well.

Any ideas? Any other experience reports?

Cheers, Lukas

Thanks Lukas, Cheers, Alexandre On 19 Jan 2009, at 19:30, Lukas Renggli wrote:

So far I can tell that I did not see this problem with 3.8.21betaU1 anymore. You find this VM in the experimental folder.

Cheers, Lukas
