I have a pretty generic LAMP dedicated server. I got an automated email telling me that my /tmp directory was getting full. I emailed tech support and they responded that it was full of .che files, and that they cleared it out for me.

This is twice this happened in the past month, and I still don't know what's causing it. It never happened before this. Does anyone have any idea what would leave .che files in the /tmp directory? I haven't made any significant changes or installs to my site in a very long time.

Thanks in advance for any help.

next time they show up.. type this to find out what type of file it is..

Code:

file /tmp/blah.che

(replace blah.che w/ a filename of one of the .che files)

If it says ASCII text, then you can cat it or less it to see what's in there - hopefully reading it will help you determine what kind of file it is..

You could also ftp it to your pc and see if you can figure it out..

Thanks, but I sorted it out. I didn't have access to the files themselves, but my hosting company sent me some and it turns out they're temp files for Wordpress or one of its plugins. I no longer update that old blog, so I disabled it and no more .che files.

Ah, cool.. good to know.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
