<div>Hello all, </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Two posts in two [working] days, sorry about this....</div>
<div> </div>
<div>My zendto was down this morning, due to being full. Turns out the /var/zendto/incoming was very large and had files in from January<br>
<br>
<font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">root@zeus:/home/nads# du -h /var/zendto/incoming</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">28G /var/zendto/incoming</span></font></div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I found an older mail list thread from June 2021 about a cron job which should exist to tidy up that directory. I've checked and my crontab does appear to have the required entry</div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;"># Cron jobs for ZendTo to remove expired drop-offs and update usage graphs</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">5 0 * * * root /usr/bin/php /opt/zendto/sbin/cleanup.php /opt/zendto/config/preferences.php >/dev/null 2>&1</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">25 * * * * root /usr/bin/php /opt/zendto/sbin/cleanup.php /opt/zendto/config/preferences.php --no-warnings >/dev/null 2>&1</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">15 0 * * * root /usr/bin/php /opt/zendto/sbin/emailSummary.php /opt/zendto/config/preferences.php >/dev/null 2>&1</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">5 */4 * * * root find -H /var/zendto/incoming -type f -mmin +1440 -delete >/dev/null 2>&1</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">1 1 * * * root /usr/bin/php /opt/zendto/sbin/rrdInit.php /opt/zendto/config/preferences.php 2>&1 | /bin/grep -iv 'illegal attempt to update using time'</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">3 3 * * * root /usr/bin/php /opt/zendto/sbin/rrdUpdate.php /opt/zendto/config/preferences.php 2>&1 | sed '$ d' | /bin/grep -v '^[0-9]*x[0-9]*$'</span></font></div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Looks like the entry to tidy up /incoming is not running, but I also have blank graphs, which suggests the rrd ones might not be working either... which also make me worry about the other entries... </div>
<div> </div>
<div><b>Is there any way I can troubleshoot these </b><b>cron jobs? </b></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Installed version is the latest I think, server was only built (in January) using the installer</div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">Listing... Done</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">zendto/lynx,trusty,xenial,bionic,now 6.13-3 all [installed]</span></font></div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>To get my space back I have run (ran?) the command from the crontab </div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">find -H /var/zendto/incoming -type f -mmin +1440 -delete >/dev/null 2>&1</span></font></div>
<div> </div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">root@zeus:/home/nads# du -h /var/zendto/incoming</span></font></div>
<div><font face="Courier New" size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">12K /var/zendto/incoming</span></font></div>
<div> </div>
<div>And now I have plenty of space back. </div>
