HTML5 manifest and chrome

Question

I am seeing this error in my console for chrome.

Application Cache Error event: Failed to commit new cache to storage, would exceed quota

it means what it seems to mean right? That my app is trying to cache too much data?

Is there anything that can be done about it?

Same site works in FF no issues.

Answer 1

if you just want to change the size of your cache, start chrome with "--disk-cache-size=N".

If you want to see whats in your cache, just type about:cache or about:appcache-internals in the Omnibar.

For a reference file: DOMApplicationCache Class Reference or google "A Beginner's Guide to Using the Application Cache" (I may not post more links, I'm sorry)

Answer 2

The error can also occur when your system drive is running low on disk space, so freeing up disk space can resolve this in this situation.
