Re: [basex-talk] Database folders with numbers after

Hi James,

As you already guessed, these folders are relics from OPTIMIZE ALL calls – or db:optimize($db, true) –, and they are removed after the operation if everything went alright.

Hope this helps, Christian

Hello,

I’m seeing regular occurrences where I end up with extra folders in my database location with numbers after, for example:

ODF-PUSH-T-JU ODF-PUSH-T-JU_1079560404

These have some but not all of the files from the original database with the same name, crucially don’t have the inf.basex file and so prevent the /dba from listing databases.

What creates these folders?

• I have a job that runs each night to optimise all the databases that have changed that day, I think these are coming about due to a failure to optimise but I’m not sure, I’m trying to understand what might creates them to be created so I can look deeper into the cause.

Running 8.4 beta 5687c30 on Linux.

Many thanks for your help, James
