[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (MRM-846) "Repository Purge By Retention Count" option not working

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRM-846?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=140165#action_140165 ]

--------------------------------------------------------------

Added additional info about the purge in the docs (trunk -r673289).

Repository Purge section in Understanding Repository Configuration of Apache Archiva now looks like this..

Repository purge is the process of cleaning up the repository of old snapshots....

Please take note that the by number of days old criteria is activated by default (set to 100 days). In order to de-activate it and use the by retention count criteria, you must set the Repository Purge By Days Older field to 0. Another thing to note here is that if the by number of days old criteria is activated, the retention count would still be respected (See the Repository Purge By Days Older section below for more details) but not the other way around.

>    Affects Versions: 1.0.2
>         Environment: Linux, JBoss, Continuum SNAPHOT (19/06/2008)

> from http://archiva.apache.org/docs/1.0.2/adminguide/repositories.html:
> "If the repository purge by retention count field is set to 2, then only the artifacts artifact-x-20070113.034619-3.jar, artifact-x-20070113.034619-3.pom, artifact-x-20070203.028902-4.jar and artifact-x-20070203.028902-4.pom will be retained in the repository. The oldest snapshots will be deleted maintaining only a number of snapshots equivalent to the set retention count."
> This is not working here. The value for "Repository Purge By Retention Count" is ignored, at least for the Snapshot-managed-repo.
> Old artifacts are not deleted.
> We are building new snaphot's on hourly basis using Continuum.
> The disk-space is heavily increasing and nothing is purged.
