Updating disk free size without rebooting the host | How to clean /tmp

I'm having the issues with /tmp/ directory, it is full and Now I must to release to zero. Luckily I have done.

When a file is removed/ deleted/ unlinked, if it is still held open by any process then only the directory entry for the file is erased, not the file's data. When the file is completely closed by all process the data is returned to the free space pool. It's a feature since you can have anonymous files this way.

To see if you have any open deleted file on a filesystem, run one of these commands, where /mount/point is the mount point.

lsof +L1 /mount/point

[HOW TO] can I stop being prompted to unlock the 'default' keyring on boot?

Use this if you have forgotten the old password and is ok to delete items in the old keyring, but want to safeguard new keyring with matching password.

For Ubuntu 14.04, I used the following.

Remove old keyring:

cd .local/share/keyrings/
rm *.keyring

Restart the system to have the new keyring created:

sudo shutdown -r now

Verify the new keyring exists:

cd .local/share/keyrings/
ls -ltr *.keyring

[HOW TO] force nginx to send specific Content-Type when using alias

hi,

Long time no see,

I want to force nginx to send specific Content-Type for one paragraph. How to?

Last time, I can not change it, when I curl -I, it shows Content-Type: application/octet-stream;

And I want it to be:
Content-Tyoe: application/json;

Finally, I set it as:

  location /me/api/versions {
        default_type application/json;
        alias /home/www/html/me/api/versions.json;
  }
