    keyword=why halog broke (fixed now, I hope)

    Here's why halog broke, I think.

    The disk quota on the /u/home fileserver ran out.
    I fixed this by removing old files (ca 2006) after
    first making sure they are on our alternative fileserver
    /group/halla/www/hallaweb/html/adaq/log/html
    Of course, they are backed up in many places elsewhere too
    (in MSS and computer center backups).

    I'll sort this out with computer center tomorrow.
    Probably will request a massive increase in quota.
    It is hard to know if we are out of quota, at present.
    Maybe I need to re-learn something because it used to
    be that "quota" command would tell me, so I'd get a warning,
    but here's an illustration of the problem:

    
[adaq@adaql1 src]$ pwd
    
/adaqfs/home/adaq/halog/src
    

    
[adaq@adaql1 src]$ cp halogscript halogscript_save1
    
cp: closing `halogscript_save1': Disk quota exceeded
    

    
  --> aha !  a disk quota problem 
    

    
[adaq@adaql1 adaq]$ quota adaq           
    
Disk quotas for user adaq (uid 1555): none
    
[adaq@adaql1 adaq]$ quota -v
    
Disk quotas for user adaq (uid 1555): none
    

    
--> so, we are blind to this problem ("quota" used to warn me).
