I have an application written in Python that's writing large amounts of data to the %TEMP%
folder. Oddly, every once and awhile, it dies, returning IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device
. The drive has plenty of free space, %TEMP%
is not its own partition, I'm an administrator, and the system has no quotas.
Does Windows artificially put some types of limits on the data in %TEMP%
? If not, any ideas on what could be causing this issue?
EDIT: Following discussions below, I clarified the question to better explain what's going on.
