3. Issue with cleanup extension

Issue with cleanup extension

  • M

    We have enabled cleanup to run every 15 minutes on reports older than 30 minutes. This works one or two times when initiated, then seems to work haphazardly. That is, checking the status of a report older than 30 minutes will return "report not found" but the document persists in storage. Is it possible we have conflicting settings in the config?

        "reports": {
      "cleanInterval": "15m",
      "cleanThreshold": "30m"
   }

    0_1777397452702_upload-1f91c12e-05c5-440f-9fb9-65122804a780

    Timestamps are UTC, but you can see many old ones here, including the one that is "not found" in the screenshot above.

  • What jsreport version do you use? What template store do you use?

    With the debug logs, you should see this

    Cleaning up old reports
Cleaned ${removedReports} old reports

    and when something fails you should see

    Failed to clean up old reports

    Could you share these logs?

    Thank you for the quick reply. We are using version 4.8.0. Template store is fs. There is nothing in the logs related to cleanup other than an acknowledgement of the settings. What does the last part of the statement refer to with 'undefined report(s) deletion per run'?

    info: reports extension has enabled old reports cleanup with interval 900000ms, threshold 1800000ms and undefined report(s) deletion per run

    Here is the entire config:

  • What does the last part of the statement refer to with 'undefined report(s) deletion per run'?

    That seems to be just a logging issue fixed in the 4.9.0

    There is nothing in the logs related to cleanup other than an acknowledgement of the settings.

    That is strange, when I run with the short interval, I can immediately see the cleanup logs (at the end). Could you double-check the same and compare with your setup?
