        Then you'll need to find what else is using your disk space. Or instead of wasting time, get a reasonably sized storage.

            @kaushal7007:

            want to free my disk usages.

            So do it…

            P.S. Trying to run Squid cache on 4GB storage is completely absurd idea. Set "Hard Disk Cache System" on the Local Cache tab to null if you want to use Squid for something else than caching.

            I do not think squid is installed look at the Status\Services

                cd /var/squid

                  That's what switching local cache to null does on its own.

                  Of course, when your box is so messed up that there's literally 0 bytes left for anyone but root, you'll get just a badly broken system where nothing works.

                      It could be ntopng using all your disk space.

                      Sorry, I can't remember how to clean it up though.

                          On a system with <4 gigs of storage? Yes that most certainly should be removed, plus run

                          
                          rm -rf /var/db/ntopng/
                          
                          

                          after that.
