Inode limit notice
 

What the hell is a inode? I dont know shit about hosting, I got a warning from certified that i was using excessive inodes but how do i do that? My traffic has actually dropped on the sites on this account :helpme? And all looks normal on the surface...

So uploaded files? I havent updated these sites in months ...

You may have a shitton of spam in the email accounts on the server

Are you running wordpress and do you have w3 total cache installed? Have you recently updated it to a newer version?

Yes and yes?

Then you've found your issue. Simply uninstall w3 total cache (make sure you remove ALL files) and then install a different caching plugin and you should be good to go.

Already have them for different project :thumbsup

Yeah i just googled it seems its common issue thanks will try that.

His hosting really isn't the issue here as I've had this happen to a blog I run on a dedicated box.

Will look into this also

check your mail box and delete the mails.,
each mail is 1 inode.

this was bugging the shit out of me i should of done a search for inode on here first, i have w3 Cache and after host told me you have past the inode quota i went in a foolishly deleted 2gb

for the life of me i could not work out how the fucker went back up, i even deleted my dam forum after all the shit with bots i got it to work ok,

bloody plugin lol its still deleting the cache file been over an hour

maybe we should set up a thread where peeps can see which host has limits on these inodes as i have read on other threads unlimited space/bandwith is not really unlimited, its like those isp's who say you will get very fast connection with 20mpegs but really you end up with 2mpegs

certified inodes limit is 250000
hostgator is 10000

i have another project to start and was looking at
http://www.way3.com/shared.php
http://www.webair.com/
https://www.amerinoc.com/

anyone know their limits, i dont need dedicated just shared limits
thanks

see sig im there very good :2 cents::2 cents:

If you have a monitoring tool that logs every hit your sites receive to a file that can can cause this issue too. Many people use the trade scripts they invested in to track hits and those scripts keep the data for each hit in a file instead of a database like sane programming practices dictate. You simply need to clean/remove some files. You can setup a cron job to remove files that are older than 365 days. That means you have access to trends for the last year. If you need logs to go back longer double or triple the time.

Inodes are files in your hosting account...it's not cpu usage or memory and a cache plugin isn't really going to do anything for removing a ton of files.
