# Post Processing interrupts without error message

## Issue Description

Post processing interrupts without an error message. No log files are created. It looks like it never started.

### Scope

NavVis Desktop Processing

## Solution

One reason can be that the /tmp/ folder is full. This folder is used, to store temporary data during the processing and is crucial to finish

1. Open your terminal
2. go to the /tmp/ folder (**cd /tmp/**)
3. Delete everything (**rm -rf ***)
4. Check with **ls** if the folder is emptyY
