 * Hi. I try to upload an image and I get this error. I have honestly emptied all
   the “tmp” folders on the server and it still shows up. I have also tried creating
   a new tmp folder and directing there. But still getting the same error. What 
   I can do?
 * `There was an error opening the temp file /var/www/html/wp-content/wmufs-temp/
   1-df8c69043ae11dd7f1af1bd76a7dd2f6c7fafcaa.part for writing. Available temp directory
   space may be exceeded or the temp file was cleaned up before the upload completed.`
 * More info: The only change that has happened is that I have pointed a new domain
   to the page. It was previously in production. The server has not been migrated,
   the domain has been pointed to it.

 * I add: I have more than 40 GB free on the server disk and I want to upload a 
   105 KB image.
   The file upload limits are 128 MB set by WordPress and 500 MB set
   by server.

 * UPDATE: If I use the browser to upload files, then yes I can upload them to the
   library with no problem. While this allows me to continue using the page, I’d
   appreciate any feedback on fixing the error, as we can’t upload more than one
   file at a time using that method.
