sporadic "no space left on device" errors in API calls

[rahulbot]

I sporadically get "no space left on device" errors when making storyList calls via the API. An example from today:

"
mediacloud.error.MCException: (’Error - got a HTTP status code of 500 with the message “Internal Server Error”, body: {“error”:“Error(s): Caught exception in MediaWords::Controller::Api::V2::Stories->list \“Traceback (most recent call last):\n File \“/opt/mediacloud/src/common/python/mediawords/db/copy/copy_from.py\“, line 67, in end\n self.__temp_file_buffer.seek(0)\nOSError: [Errno 28] No space left on device\n\nDuring handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:\n\nTraceback (most recent call last):\n File \“/opt/mediacloud/src/common/python/mediawords/db/handler.py\“, line 729, in get_temporary_ids_table\n copy.end()\n File \“/opt/mediacloud/src/common/python/mediawords/db/copy/copy_from.py\“, line 73, in end\n raise McCopyFromException(\‘COPY FROM query failed: %s\’ % str(ex))\nmediawords.db.copy.copy_from.McCopyFromException: COPY FROM query failed: [Errno 28] No space left on device\“”}’, 500)

Happening more often to me now :-(

We ran out of disk space on tarbell, turned out that it's a problem with creating a cache file for a library that does Chinese language tokenization, so moved to: #809
