<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Let's see if I can address this:<br>
<br>
1. Spot files can be automatically removed by doing a 'set/var
$Spot::spotcachedays <some positive integer larger than 1>'
in the startup file.<br>
2. Debug files ARE removed after (by default) 10 days. To keep
more or fewer debug files 'set/var $DXDebug::keepdays <some
positive integer larger than 1>' in the startup file. To keep
them forever, set this to 0.<br>
3. Log files (for historical abuse reasons) are kept for ever. I
would not use find like Kin does, but do it this way: <font
face="Calibri">spawn("find /spider/local_data/logs -type f
-mtime +62 -exec rm -f {} \;"). Note that log files are monthly
not daily. <br>

Never been a fan of xargs ... Very easy to get bitten ...<br>

<font face="Arial">Hi Kin<br>
<br>
I have put it in the de dxspider crontab yesterday but I just
looked this morning and all the spots and other data are still
there.<br>
Data is stored from may 20 to may 31 and I want to reduce these
to only 3 days.<br>
Should I change the +31 +62 into smaller figures e.g. +3 and +6?<br>

<font face="Arial">Hello<br>
<br>
I am running DX-Spider ver. 1.57 build 441 on a raspberry Pi
zero W.<br>
<br>
When I used ver.1.55 build 249 there was a script called
spider saved in etc/cron.daily/spider which removed <br>
data in /spider/data/log, /spider/data/debug and
/spider/data/spots<br>
<br>
So with the build 441 the path now should be </font><br>
<font face="Arial"><font face="Arial"> /spider/local_data/log,
/spider/local_data/debug and /spider/local_data/spots<br>
<br>
So to remove older spots I have these lines:<br>
<br>
#!/bin/sh We need to delete old files.<br>
spiderdir="/spider/local_data/spots/2022" <br>
if [ -n "$spiderdir" ] && [ -d"$spiderdir" ]; then<br>
# only keep three days' depth of these<br>
find "$spiderdir" -type f -mtime +3 -exec rm {} \; fi<br>
<br>
I did chmod a+x spider<br>
<br>
But I the spots are not removed. I still see spots
starting may 20 til may 30<br>
(which should be may27 til may 30)<br>
<br>
What is wrong?<br>
Do I need to place the script elswhere or maybe use a
complete different one?<br>
<br>
Please some help<br>
