/tmp was set at 128016Kb, approx. 125Mb but has now been increased to 2Gb. I'm confident this was indeed the problem as the errors I was dealing with all referenced issues attempting to write to the /tmp file. Maybe ask your host the same question and find out the sizes?

I wonder why vBulletin needs so much /tmp space? I've just checked my server and the /tmp allocation is just 256MB with less than 40MB used. The server runs several websites and some run forums (none run vBulletin). Nothing's ever complained about lack of /tmp space.

Odd.
