Help, why did I receive a error message when I have 177G of free space?

I receved this message last night. I use sp to build db.
The size of the db is 12.9G, maxsize Unlimited, growth 10%.
Current free space 117G.


Msg 1105, Sev 17: Could not allocate space for object 'dw_MasterClaim_ProcLine' in database 'fl1stDwProd2' because the 'PRIMARY' filegroup is full. [SQLSTATE 42000]

The tempdb size is 18.2G - this is the size after I did a stop/start is this the issue? I thought the tempdb was cleared after a stop/start?

TempDB typically should clear when you stop/start the services but I don't think that's your problem.
Do you have autoshrink on for the 'fl1stDwProd2' database?

The out of space problem is because the auto shrink is most likely occuring at the same time as the growth. I would not use the auto shrink feature.
