Mount Agung in Karangasem regency, Bali, erupted again early on Sunday, the volcano's observatory reported.
An ash column that spewed from Mt. Agung's crater during the eruption could not be monitored as thick fog shrouded the peak.
The eruption caused ash to fall on to several areas around the mountain.
"The eruption occurred at 4:09 a.m. local time but the height of the ash column could not be measured because of the heavy fog.
The eruption was recorded on a seismograph with a maximum amplitude of 22 millimetres and a duration of three minutes and eight seconds," the observatory said in its report on Sunday morning.

Indonesia's Mag 7.4 quake has caused the Barren Island volcano India's only active volcano to erupt according to geologists
Geologists observe that the eruption could be linked to the recent earthquake that rocked Indonesia. According to officials from the Geological Survey of India (GSI), the eruption was first recorded on September 25 when satellite images confirmed the spewing of lava or pyroclastic material and ash on the north flank of the island.
"There have been many cases of volcanic eruptions which were preceded by earthquakes of mild intensity.
They could be linked, and the source of the trigger may be the same, as the location of Sulawesi earthquake is not very far away.
But it may also be separate and simultaneous events and the source may be different.
High levels of seismicity at the Kick em' Jenny underwater volcano located off Grenada West Indies with quakes of around M3.5
It said since the episode began during the afternoon of September 30, quite a number of events have taken place, including some of 3.5 magnitude.
However, the threat level remains at yellow, which means the "volcano is restless: seismicity and/or fumarolic activity are above the historical level or other unusual activity has been observed or can be expected without warning."
The National Disaster Management Agency (NaDMA) in Grenada added that the exclusion zone of 1.5 kilometres from the summit of the volcano must continue to be observed.

"To our knowledge no one has faced this before." Puna Geothermal Venture Plant compromised Monday exposing toxic and flammable gas Hawaii
Authorities were scrambling to firm up contingency plans Tuesday as lava pouring from Hawaii's erupting Kilauea volcano slowly encroached on a power plant on the Big Island.
The lava flow entered the 800-acre property of the Puna Geothermal Venture Plant on Monday and had stalled at a swale about 300 yards from the nearest underground well.
On Tuesday, the lava was advancing.
"Fissure 6 reactivated last night and has been erupting since around midnight," Hawaii County civil defence officials said in a statement.
"The flows from Fissure 6 are slowly flowing closer to PGV property."
If lava breaches wells, authorities fear it could release hydrogen sulfide, a toxic and flammable gas. Most of the wells have been capped with thick steel plates.
Corrosive as diluted battery acid Sulfur Dioxide levels off the scale giant clouds of acid and fine glass methane and lava haze Kilauea volcano
Inhaling sulfur dioxide is associated with increased respiratory symptoms and disease, difficulty in breathing, and premature death.
In 2008, the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists reduced the short-term exposure limit to 0.25 parts per million (ppm), the Kilauea volcano eruption has sent Sulfur Dioxide levels off the scale as it blows across the island.
Lava from Hawaii's Kilauea volcano is pouring into the sea and setting off a chemical reaction that creates giant clouds of acid and fine glass.
Big Island residents feared "the big one" after Kilauea shot anvil-sized "ballistic blocks" and was rocked by earthquakes damaging buildings
Hawaii's Kilauea volcano spewed ash nearly six miles (9 km) into the sky on Thursday and scientists warned this could be the first in a string of more violent explosive eruptions with the next possibly occurring within hours.
"This has relieved pressure temporarily," U.S. Geological Survey geologist Michelle Coombs told a news conference in Hilo.
"We may have additional larger, powerful events."
Residents of the Big Island were warned to take shelter from the ash as toxic gas levels spiked in a small southeast area where lava has burst from the ground during the two-week eruption.

The monster Icelandic volcano Barbarbunga suffers a sharp 3.9 magnitude earthquake and is considered a significant seismic event
A sharp 3.9 magnitude earthquake was detected at 16:13 on Sunday afternoon, followed by a handful of smaller quakes.
The volcano has been relatively calm in 2018, with only a handful of 3+ magnitude quakes.
The relative calm comes at the heels of relatively high levels of activity in 2016 and 2017.
Since the largest earthquake to hit Barbarbunga at the end of January, a 4.9 magnitude quake.
A 3.9 magnitude quake is considered a significant seismic event, as any quake in an active volcano which is larger than 3 on the Richter scale is considered a powerful quake.
One of the most active volcanoes in the world Le Piton de la Fournaise in the Indian Ocean caught on video with latest eruption spewing lava

Only 29 "confirmed" eruptions were recorded in 2017 the lowest count this century mirroring the lowest major quake total! A little weird?
2017's total of 29 was 15 less than 2016's 44, 14 less than 2015's 43 and 9 less than 2014's 38.
Around 40 confirmed eruption is a yearly average in the 21st century with totals remaining pretty stable through the first 16 years with, just as with major quakes an unaccountable large drop-off in 2017.
Just as the major quake total of 2017 was the lowest this century, the confirmed eruption total for 2017 is the lowest number this century too, the highest being the 2004 total of 49.
