I encountered the following error message while I was installing zulip docker.
It complaints that there is not enough space.
Zulip development environment setup succeeded!
ERROR: Service ‘zulip’ failed to build: Error processing tar file(exit status 1): write /usr/share/icons/Humanity/status/22/gsm-3g-medium-secure.svg: no space left on device
As you can see that from the following that /var directory is 100% full.

Solution that I found online is
# docker image prune –all
or
# docker image prune -a
I also tried to delete docker under /var/lib
by issuing the following commend
# systemctl stop docker
# rm -rf /var/lib/docker
# systemctl start docker
But I still couldn’t resolve no space issues.
