HTTP/5xx (Server Error)

507 Insufficient Storage

The server is unable to store the representation needed to complete the request.

❓ Why does this happen?

Disk full on the server, WebDAV quota exceeded, or container ephemeral storage exhausted.

✅ How to fix it

Free disk space (docker system prune, log rotation) or increase the volume / quota size.
