Hi, I have setup kanboard on my server. It seems to be working, but when I use sqlite driver it shows “Internal Error: SQL Error: SQLSTATE [HY000]: General error: 13 database or disk full.”. There is full of free space of disk. I have try to switch to mysql engine - but when I do this kanboard stops working at all and shows error message “Internal Error: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2002] No such file or directory”. What’s interesting - when I change to mysql engine there is no any debug.log info (when I change back to sqlite there is debug). How to solve this? For me it’s indifferent what engine (mysql/sqlite) I use, I want it only to work properly. I cant use postegree. Regards, Michal ---

Unless you are just testing it, I highly suggest you use mysql instead of sqlite. In order to kanboard work with mysql, it’s not just change the engine to mysql. You need to setup a mysql server and set the other connection properties on config.php: [https://docs.kanboard.org/en/latest/admin\_guide/mysql.html](https://docs.kanboard.org/en/latest/admin_guide/mysql.html) About the error `13 database or disk full.` when using sqlite, are you using linux or windows? The error should be different if it was permission errors, but did you check that? ---

I know that I need to configure database and I dont have problem with this - its made properly for sure, becouse I’m connecting to this database from command line without any problem. I use Linux (it’s installed on Synology NAS but it’s some linux distro). I dont know why kanboard shows errorr message only with mysql driver and dont write then any messages to debug.log. ---

Because NAS disk drives be so slow, like molasses, that things go boink. Doubtful that’s the reason tho. Are you using ram disks for temp folders? ---

For sure it’s not related with slownes - it has parameters better than averadge server. ---

That maybe, but, it’s still a NAS and so therefore it does NAS type things, of which, includes a lot of I/O. But you’ll see those errors as I/O errors, and if using mysql, less likely than sqlite.
