I started getting disc quota exceeded error messages today and saw that I had used 100% of my 5G file storage as a result of temp files. I deleted the temp files and by dashboard now shows that I am using 0% of my file storage. However, my app is still throwing disc quota exceeded error messages. Any thoughts why?

What app is it? Are you sure that you are looking at the latest logs?

Seems to be working now. Maybe just a delay between when I freed up the space and when the disc quota tracking system recognized that I had?
Are you sure the errors were from after you deleted the files? It's possible that you were reading old error messages.
Yes, the app was crashing and throwing the error message after I deleted the temp files.
When did you delete the files and what time was the last disk quota exceeded error message?
Last overwrite error message was: 2022-01-17 23:01:12,807: OSError: [Errno 122] Disk quota exceeded. I don't remember exactly when I deleted the temp files (is there a log somewhere?), but it was before 2022-01-17 21:59:22.564690
Maybe your app is writing a lot to /tmp temporarily.
