This is what it says on the tin - Jira doesn't have enough space for the index. Check the disk space, check that there's a lot of it for Jira to use, and check the quota for the user running Jira if you have it enabled. Generally, on a windows box, Jira will report "can't open file" if permissions are lacking, not disk space. It could be blowing the disk space because it tries to grab quite a large allocation of space up front (instead of getting 99% of the way through and then falling over)

Ideally, you would put the index on a different disk to the operating system, because Jira can thrash the index sometimes. You should also avoid having it under a diretory with a space in the name (in theory, not an issue, in the real world, it's windows), and for several reasons, it's always good to segregate data from application where you can.

Assuming you have space left von C:\, maybe the user you are running JIRA with does not have the permission to create files in C:\Program Files\. You could

1. run JIRA with a more privileged user or
2. relocate JIRAs data directory somewhere else.

Also getting this error when trying to open Integrity Checker; Could these be related.
