[openupload-devel] Automatic file deletion

[<wal...@no...>]

Hi,
a last word for today

I'm using a cron task to automatically delete expired files ( I'm using
the expire modules to mark files to get deleted)

The cron task is launching a script shell that mimics an administrator
doing a maintenance task

this is the shell script :
(an administrative account (maitenance,password) is used. You'll see
french url as the only language on my upload site is french, but it is
easy to chnge )


#!/bin/bash
WGET=`which wget`
OUTPUT=/dev/null
OPTION=--quiet
HOTE=localhost

$WGET -O $OUTPUT $OPTION  --proxy=off  --keep-session-cookies 
--save-cookies /tmp/cookies.txt   --post-data
"action=login&step=2&username=maintenance&pwd=password" 
http://$HOTE/index.php
$WGET -O $OUTPUT $OPTION --proxy=off --load-cookies /tmp/cookies.txt  
--post-data
"action=adminmaintenance&step=2&expire=Supprimer+les+expirations"  ht
tp://$HOTE/index.php
$WGET -O $OUTPUT $OPTION  --proxy=off --load-cookies /tmp/cookies.txt
