First of all, the subject line you used, "Error Message from Server," was a

Second of all, your errant capitalization is annoying.

When you say you can "see" more than 2.5 GB of disk space is still there, you
didn't indicate what command(s) you used to obtain this information. I
suggest that you use:

    df -m

This will tell you how much free space is available on each partition.

It's likely that your /home partition has a lot of free space, but perhaps /
is close to full.

Look inside your /tmp directory; you may have files eating up a lot of space.
