"Unable to copy links backup. Reason: Disc quota exceeded"
That kind of message I get when running Build All command from Links admin (nph-build.cgi). I checked the available disk space from my ISP and I should have plenty of space left. Ideas ?

Remember that when you do the backup, it will make an exact copy of your database file.

I think that your ISP has put some restrictions on your account.

Contact them again.

Well, just to 'add' something: the back up does not only make a back up, well, it does, but id does so every day. So from time to time, you might delete (or if you're unsure about this: download) the backupfiles until the one from yesterday or something like this.

It's a quite a bit of space that you save like this.

Or you can use the Mod located somewhere in this Forum that backups your files into a tar.gz file, which uses less disk space.
