Apache creates lots of directories in /tmp

RT Users

Hello,

Since I installed RT 3.0, Apache creates lots of empty directories in

the /tmp directory. I would like to know if that is normal, and if they will
be deleted automatically.

Thank you

I see that their is a directory for session data in the rt 3.0.0
/path/to/rt3/var/session_data
shouldn’t apache put session data their ?

David,

In version two, the following cron jobs were suggested:

0 * * * * find /path/to/rt2/WebRT/sessiondata -type f -amin +600 -exec
rm {} ;
0 * * * * find /path/to/rt2/log -type f -amin +7200 -exec rm {} ;

Or similar – this performs a nightly cleanup of those files (please
note that the log directories are related to where our local
installaiton is, and the second entry is more specifically the tmp
files that I believe you see)…

You may find these useful for rt3 (I’m just experimenting with that
now), or not!

With kind regards,

Scott
