Dear Galaxy dev team,
as my galaxy database folder ("galaxy-dev/database/files/000/") contains too many large files, which are not needed any more, I just tried to use the cleanup scripts to delete all stuff older than 10 days.
I executed the corresponding shell scripts in the recommended order:
delete_userless_histories.sh purge_histories.sh purge_libraries.sh purge_folders.sh purge_datasets.sh
The problem is that "purge_datasets.sh" did not remove any file from the disk (although I used the "-r" option). I also tried to run "delete_datasets.sh" in advance. According to the respective log-file ("delete_datasets.log") some dataset instances were deleted:
Examined 329 datasets, marked 329 as deleted and purged 329 dataset instances Total elapsed time: 101.456291914
However, if I try to run "purge_datasets.sh" subsequently, nothing happens:
Purged 0 datasets Freed disk space: 0 Elapsed time: 0.834518909454
Could you please help me solving this issue?
Kind regards, Johannes
