Unable to save client deployment to TIBCO Spotfire Server with error "java.io.IOException: No space left on device".

When deploying a client deployment on the TIBCO Spotfire Server, you may come across an issue, where you are able to upload a deployment and "Validate" it, but cannot save. There will be a notification indicating an issue. Looking in the TIBCO Spotfire Server logs you will see an error like:

  This issue occurs if there is no disk space left on the drive or partition where the TIBCO Spotfire Server is installed.  For example, in Windows you can view the drive space in File Explorer and in Linux you can use the below command on a Linux machine to check the disk space

df -k

For example, here we can see that 99% of the disk space is used which is not sufficient:

$ df -k
Filesystem           1K-blocks     Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_root
                      15939004 14837972    284700  99% /
tmpfs                  1961340       84   1961256   1% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1               487652   122266    339786  27% /boot
/dev/mapper/VolGroup-lv_data
                      61792252  8132884  50513848  14% /DATA

To resolve this issue, free up space on the disk or partition used by the TIBCO Spotfire Server by removing unnecessary content and consider adding more disk space to the drive or partition. Once there is sufficient disk space, try to save the deployment again. Doc: Adding software packages to a deployment area
