I'm getting the same message each time I try and [TAB] to autocomplete into a directory: test being the directory within var/www/html

# hitting [TAB] after typing 'test'
$ ll test-bash: cannot create temp file for here-document: No space left on device
-bash: cannot create temp file for here-document: No space left on device

Errow with ll, cat, cd and [TAB]

I can use autocomplete with vim 

$ vim test/testing.html

I read a few posts about this but could not solve my problem. The last thing I did was run:

sudo apt install bash-completion

At the bottom of my ~/.bashrc I have:

# enable programmable completion features (you don't need to enable
# this, if it's already enabled in /etc/bash.bashrc and /etc/profile
# sources /etc/bash.bashrc).
#if ! shopt -oq posix; then
#  if [ -f /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion ]; then
#    . /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion
#  elif [ -f /etc/bash_completion ]; then
#    . /etc/bash_completion
#  fi
#fi
source /etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh

With /etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh as:

# /etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh
# Check for interactive bash and that we haven't already been sourced.
if [ -n "$BASH_VERSION" -a -n "$PS1" -a -z "$BASH_COMPLETION_COMPAT_DIR" ]; then

# Check for recent enough version of bash.
bash=${BASH_VERSION%.*}; bmajor=${bash%.*}; bminor=${bash#*.}
if [ $bmajor -gt 4 ] || [ $bmajor -eq 4 -a $bminor -ge 1 ]; then
    [ -r "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/bash_completion" ] && \
        . "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/bash_completion"
    if shopt -q progcomp && [ -r /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion ]; then
        # Source completion code.
        . /usr/share/bash-completion/bash_completion
    fi
fi
unset bash bmajor bminor

fi

Any suggestions would be great. It easy to feel how much I autocomplete in bash. $ which bash /bin/bash

Thanks Dave

UPDATE: I ran df and it looks like the problem? 

$ df

  • bash-completions require that you have free space in root / file system. Free up some space or extend the partition and file system – Algebra Jun 03 '20 at 19:28
  • I added the output from df to my post and that must be it. i'm going to contact the client vendor and ask. my virtual machine has 40636768 vs 3566896 seems small? – kaplan Jun 03 '20 at 19:36
  • Yes, you have 0 Available blocks on your root / Mount. – Algebra Jun 03 '20 at 19:50
  • The amount of space seems large if I have not put any files up on the server yet. I've only updated Apache and PHP-FPM. This seems odd, yes? If it's a 1k-block and there are 3566896 that's 3.5 gb available and used. – kaplan Jun 03 '20 at 21:09

@thomas-ward Since my previous answer was changed to comments and I don't have the rep to add a comment, I'll just add another answer and leave it to you to change. Sorry.

@kaplan Looking at the root file system line of df

Filesystem                      1K-blocks    Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/vg-root               3566896 3366004         0 100% /

The Available block count is 0. This is the free space for files on the volume.

3566896 is the 1k-blocks count which is the total size of the volume (used + free + reserved)
