I/O and filled disk error when running Molpro 2010

I encountered this error when running molpro 2010 binary on a compute node.

ERROR WRITING        32768 WORDS AT OFFSET   20630927. TO FILE 1  IMPLEMENTATION=d

As the error message suggest, there is a filled disk / partition that is used by molpro 2010. Looks for your molprop
  • Scratch file directories, 
  • /tmp
  • quota set by administrators.
All these will cause errors above
