Apache is not starting and throws messages like “[emerg] (28)No space left on device: Couldn’t create accept lock” in error log.

Apache can not start and shows in error log messages like this: [emerg] (28)No space left on device: \ Couldn’t create accept lock \ (/var/log/httpd/accept.lock.24765) (5) but the partition is not full, it’s not a quota problem and yes – the partition is writable. So where is the problem?
