<Closed> Over filling of /var/lib/schroot

Hello

The space in the path is wasting space on my root partition as below:

root (Path= /var/lib/schroot)
# du -hs *
du: cannot access ‘mount/jessie_1-fff2d342-61ea-4345-a0f5-e924218137e3/proc/29817/task/29817/fd/4’: No such file or directory
du: cannot access ‘mount/jessie_1-fff2d342-61ea-4345-a0f5-e924218137e3/proc/29817/task/29817/fdinfo/4’: No such file or directory
du: cannot access ‘mount/jessie_1-fff2d342-61ea-4345-a0f5-e924218137e3/proc/29817/fd/4’: No such file or directory
du: cannot access ‘mount/jessie_1-fff2d342-61ea-4345-a0f5-e924218137e3/proc/29817/fdinfo/4’: No such file or directory
3.1G mount
9.1M session
12K union
4.0K unpack

The problem is exactly the same as here:

Kindly advise how to automatically remove the unneccessary previous created sessions.

Thanks in advance.

Don't use /var/lib/schroot for the chroot. Select another partition or directory in /etc/schroot/schroot.conf (directory=/path/to/new/location).

In /etc/schroot/schroot.conf

the "directory" option represents the chroot path, not the "/var/lib/schroot".

My chroot path is not in the root, it is on separate partition, and doesnt seem to effect the root. But as /var/lib/schroot/mount is over filling the root ie 3Gib now. The issue is how to clear the /var/lib/schroot/mount to remain less than 1Gib.

Thankyou.
