Unable to run the Workflow

Subject: ENOSPC error — storage full on hosted instance

Hi n8n team,

I’m encountering this error on my hosted instance:

“ENOSPC: no space left on device, write (Google Drive node)”

I’ve already deleted all executions, but the error persists. This seems to be a backend disk space issue related to temp/binary storage. Can you please clear my workspace container’s volume storage?

Thanks!

Applies according to the case of your database to be able to purge.

If you’re using SQLite, set these environment variables:

DB_SQLITE_VACUUM_ON_STARTUP=true
EXECUTIONS_DATA_PRUNE=true
EXECUTIONS_DATA_PRUNE_MAX_AGE=<days>
EXECUTIONS_DATA_PRUNE_MAX_COUNT=<number>

Restart the service for it to take effect.

If you’re using Postgres, you must manually run the queries to delete old databases:

docker system prune -af
df -h # to see the space
