it's #88
you need to run electrumx_compact_history regularly to avoid it
how often depends on the coin's block time
i do it automatically with cron once a week

Can you share the cron job. Looks like the server needs to be shutdown before running it.

i have eg this

0 5 * * 2 sudo systemctl stop electrumx_KMD && COIN=Komodo DB_DIRECTORY=/electrumdb/KMD electrumx_compact_history && sudo systemctl start electrumx_KMD

to do it every Tuesday at 05:00
you may need to adapt it a bit though... i configured electrumx as systemd service and i also have the binaries in my PATH (/usr/local/bin)
you need to stop, start electrumx_compact_history by passing the COIN and DB_DIRECTORY variable to it and then start when it's done
