/opt increse unexpectedly

[Fadia Almarei]

I have a Linux server the /opt partition had only the apache configuration file and other data like htdocs and others, i have a strang condition that the partition get filled then i empty alot of data from it but after a while the size of it increase bit by bit until it is filled again ,I check all the files and processes nothing apears unusial, it really seems strange, I do not know where is the problem.

Hi
What sort of data fills the /opt that you delete.

may be you put Apache logfiles under /opt?
anyway - I suggest to run (and may be send us) two checks:

1) du /opt |sort -rn| head -20
2) find /opt -mtime -1
