[ckan-dev] temporary files not closed

Dear Experts

After uploading large files I run out of space because correspondingly
large files are created in /tmp. These files are actually deleted but
the filesystem doesn't release the space because they have not been
closed by Ckan.

Restarting apache is a workaround.

It looks like that:

root at eaw-ckan-prod1:~# lsof +L1
COMMAND   PID     USER   FD   TYPE DEVICE    SIZE/OFF NLINK    NODE NAME
....
apache2 10600 www-data   19u   REG  254,0 10000000835     0 2883594 /tmp/tmplcJxsE (deleted)
apache2 10600 www-data   20u   REG  254,0 10000000000     0 2883595 /tmp/tmpQ_XJlu (deleted)
....


Does anybody have an idea where to look for that bug?


Cheers,
Harald
