Hi All My arm linux installed ipfs, when i try to ipfs-update it told to me ...

xxx:/mnt/md1/admin/ipfs-update# ./ipfs-update --verbose fetch looking up 'latest'

fetching "/ipns/dist.ipfs.io/go-ipfs/versions" fetching url: https://ipfs.io/ipns/dist.ipfs.io/go-ipfs/versions fetching go-ipfs version v0.4.18
using GOOS=linux and GOARCH=arm
fetching "/ipns/dist.ipfs.io/go-ipfs/v0.4.18/go-ipfs_v0.4.18_linux-arm.tar.gz" fetching url: https://ipfs.io/ipns/dist.ipfs.io/go-ipfs/v0.4.18/go-ipfs_v0.4.18_linux-arm.tar.gz

Because my /tmp is tmpfs and just 16M

xxx:/mnt/md1/admin/ipfs-update# df /tmp Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on tmpfs 15912 15908 4 100% /tmp

How do i change ipfs-update temp directory from /tmp to other place ?

Thanks, AL

You can set the TMPDIR environment variable to change the default temporary directory (note: this will apply to applications other than IPFS as well).

You should also consider increasing the size of /tmp. A lot of applications are going to have trouble with a 16MiB temporary directory.

That solved my problem.

Thanks a lot.
