Disk quota exceeded

I am trying to pip install my app dependancy packages through the requirements.txt and it installs a few packages then after some time it throws an error of OSError: [Errno 122] Disk quota exceeded while my disk quota according to the files tab is 58% full, so I am wondering what might be problem

The install process is cleaning up the partially installed package after the failure.

so that means the packages did not get installed

Yes. (Or maybe it got partially installed)

basically because it's a security risk.

You can install all pure python packages using the --user flag though. See here for more information.

If you need more disk space, you can upgrade your account to one with more space. The easiest way to do that is to go to the "Account" page and click the "Customize your plan" button, which allows you to get more disk space without also paying for other things that you don't need.

Please I tried to install this: pip install --user vedo, and it installed successfully,

Now after I got the point regarding pip3.8 for python3.8 I tried to install it using: pip3.8 install --user vedo

But I'm getting this error: ERROR: Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 122] Disk quota exceeded

, and my disk quota contains nothing much! May as well, know what is the processer my coding is working on?

Some packages require more space for the installation (which is partially released afterwards). That may be the case.

The dashboard is reporting "File storage: 62% full – 319.6 MB of your 512.0 MB quota". The size of the new package I am interested in is 27.2 Mb. Why I am experiencing this error?
