I moved files from my old server to a new one. I don't know why but when I want to zip my folder it always hangs on a folder.
At first, I thought it had failed, so I canceled by pressing ctrl+c, but I tried multiple times and always have same result.
My zip command is:
zip -r backup.zip /var/www -x '*.log*'
I tried so many zip commands with or without params/arg but still hangs on /admin/storage/logs/0 directory.
When hung up, the zip process was still running, so I tried to wait for about 3 hours until it was completed.
After completed, I moved .zip that has 7.7 GB size file to the new server then tried to extract it. When extracting it's returned:
/admin/storage/logs/0: write error (disk full?)
My new server has 160 GB, and the old server only has about 15 gb. What makes the new server full?
Researching I found folder /admin/storage/logs/ has a 134 GB size but when I run command ls it's empty. I deleted that folder but when I run df -h the used disk space still same.
Below is my command history:
root@ip-172-26-4-220:/var/www/www/admin/storage# du -hs * | sort -rh
134G logs

32K framework

How to free up space?
On old server admin/storage/logs folder only has 52M:
[root@server storage]# du -hs * | sort -rh
3.4G app
52M logs
2.7M framework
4.0K oauth-public.key
4.0K oauth-private.key
4.0K debugbar
Why was the extracted .zip file given more than 134 GB?
[root@server admin]# cd storage/logs/
[root@server logs]# ls -lh
total 51M

wow, file 0 has 1 TB size. but why did df return only 25gb used? Maybe I need to delete it first before migrate?
