When trying to install unity 2021.1.1f1, and adding build tools for linux, windows and macos, it errors saying there is not enough space to install despite me having 140gb storage free. I have tried with other versions, and a different configuration of options, but none work.
Is this on Windows?
Do you have free space on the C: drive?
Unfortunately as far as I can surmise, Unity will always attempt to stage the installation on the C drive, regardless of what the selected installation location is. Therefore you will need free space on the C drive as well as the intended installation drive.
No, this is on linux (arch x86_64)
Not sure what distro you’re using but here are some other possibilities:
-
there may be a TEMP area (or perhaps just
/tmp) that cannot accommodate this space -
maybe
/tmpis mapped to a too-small RAM drive -
cleanup policy for
/tmpmight be clearing it between the different install steps
I’m on archlinux. I set the install folder to a new folder i made in /home/sueperb called .unity
