Cache is not purging causing a lot of File Use activity with th IO

[JoshWho]

No clue what changed but I keep seeing multiple processes of Cache Purge that never ends and it makes the IO almost not usable when it does that.

[JoshWho]

It is like it just keeps running and never ends

[DanielnetoDotCom]

where are you seeing this, can you please screenshot?

[JoshWho]

I killed all the other ones to get stability back

[DanielnetoDotCom]

every time we delete the cache folder must be something on the log.

maybe for some reason, the cache is not being deleted and it is trying over and over;

try to manually delete the folder and also check if the script has the right permission to write on the videos folder.

check your logs

[JoshWho]

Is the cache still using the ssd? Second question is, does that folder ever delete (Expire) the data or is that only on reboot?

Live Links is having trouble getting the thumbnails might be the ddos protection thing on there

[JoshWho]

That is all I see

[DanielnetoDotCom]

On this, any process should be able to lock a file. maybe another tool is locking a file inside the cache.

the update may resolve the isUntrustedRequest thing

the ddosProtection log may be some clue to whatever is happening.

Ok running the git pull now

[JoshWho]

Looks like it is working again. Thank you @DanielnetoDotCom

[JoshWho]

I had to run php /var/www/html/YouPHPTube/plugin/Cache/crontab.php

After I ran that everything went back to normal. I now have a crontab set to run it

I also have that new limit on the config now
