| Post subject: | themecache is not purging art when programs are deleted. |
When I installed LinHES 8.3 I has plenty of hard drive so I added a extra gig of space to the /home partition (2.87 GB). Now I noticed that that partition is 98% full. Here are some of the largest folders /home/mythtv/.kodi/userdata/Thumbnails (351.72 MB) (this file appears normal to me) /home/mythtv/.cache/google-chrome (206.28 MB) (this file appears normal to me) /home/mythtv/.mythtv/remotecache (244 MB) (3105 files) (old GUI art not deleting) /home/mythtv/.mythtv/themecache/LinHES.1280.720 (326.61 MB) (2572 files) (old GUI art not deleting) /home/mythtv/.mythtv/themecache/LinHES.1920.1080 (1.02 GB) (4967 files) (old GUI art not deleting) Dos anyone know if there is a maintenance program that purges these files? Dos anyone know if they can just be deleted? At this rate I am looking at a system crash in about a week. Any suggestions here? |

I don't think there is anything in LH or myth that will automatically prune those caches. Maybe a monthly maintenance task is in order. You can delete them with something like: Code: rm -rf /home/mythtv/.mythtv/{*cache,Cache-*} Just make sure that you restart mythfrontend right after running that cmd.Also, since /home is on its own partition seperate from the os it being full shouldn't cause a system crash. But mythfrontend does act pretty wonky when home is full. |

Yeah I always give those partitions more room than the recommended minimums. |

It been about a week since I ran brfranson's code (Thank you!) The cache should be repopulated by now so I thought I would post some results. /home partition (2.87 GB). 98% Before /home partition ( .9 GB). 35% After /home/mythtv/.mythtv/remotecache (244 MB) (3105 files) Before /home/mythtv/.mythtv/remotecache (32 MB) (416 files) After /home/mythtv/.mythtv/themecache/LinHES.1280.720 (326.61 MB) (2572 files) Before /home/mythtv/.mythtv/themecache/LinHES.1280.720 (141 MB) (1172 files) After /home/mythtv/.mythtv/themecache/LinHES.1920.1080 (1.02 GB) (4967 files) Before This file was not recreated. At this time I have a 720 TV attached /home/mythtv/.cache/google-chrome (206 MB) Before /home/mythtv/.cache/google-chrome (116 MB) After I manually deleted this file. I was not necessary but it bought me some time. |

I added a check to myth_mtc.py to look at /home and if it is greater than 90% full it will remove the mythtv caches. The chrome cache does a pretty good job of cleaning itself from what I have seen so I didn't include it. This check is part of LinHES-system-8.3-19 and later. |
