Yes, pgsql_tmp, you ought to be looking for a sudden and drastic jump in space utilization around the time of the error message. You're not concerned with the current space utilization, but with the one around that time, because, it probably got freed right after the error was raised.
How many times has this happened ? what kind of queries were running at that time? can you identify something that could have required lots of temporary space?

Which file system (specifically, which directory)?  Is it data/base/pgsql_tmp?  There's 96GB free, which is 74% of the volume.

do you have space usage charts for that partition? doesn't it show a spike during that time?

There's certainly a problem with the application, but the error is in the pg_log, not the application log.

What if this error message pertains to something happening on the application side?

Hi,

v9.6.6

PostgreSQL JDBC Driver 53100 ERROR:  could not write to tuplestore temporary
file: No space left on device

I see this in the pg_log file, but #1 can't figure out what "tuplestore" is
(Google doesn't help), and #2 there's lots of space on all my file systems. 
data/base, where pgsql_tmp lives, has 96GB free.)

Thanks
