Mentioned in bitmessage chan. Needs to be checked if reproducible. Could be sqlite is createing a temp file in a different directory during VACUUM:

I got the following error while trying to start PyBM

ERROR: The msgpack package is not available.It is highly recommended for messages coding. ERROR: If your package manager does not have this package, try running "pip install msgpack-python". Loading config files from same directory as program. Using default logger configuration 2018-05-02 08:53:07,236 - ERROR - /home/me/.namecoin/namecoin.conf unreadable or missing, Namecoin support deactivated 2018-05-02 08:53:13,627 - CRITICAL - (While VACUUM) Alert: Your disk or data storage volume is full. sqlThread will now exit.

I really had very little free space in / partition but actually I was running BM in portable mode in the /home partition which had 6 GiB free space.. so it should work.. I have just freed some space in / so I can start PyBM and send this message

Thanks NourEddineX

sqlite uses /tmp for vacuum. I had the same problem on openwrt. Another way is to export SQLITE_TMPDIR (not worked for me) or use PRAGMA: https://www.sqlite.org/tempfiles.html

I have tried to reproduce the same issue but I was not able to get any issue even on my system I have 7gb of space is free and I have also tried to find the/tmp directory in my Linux system but I am not able to find out so can anyone let me know the exact case when you are facing the issue.
