Clearing objects.cache

Post by jbennett »

Is there a method of clearing this file?

It seems that occasionally it will get huge and I will run out of disk space. This is especially true if I apply changes to the system via the CCM.

It should not get so large as to run out of disk space. It does get large, for a text file. What is filling up the file?

I realize that it shouldn't get large enough to fill up, except that when something does go wrong, it will stop processing the checks and will fill up. The only way I've figured out how to clear the file out after fixing the issue is to do a reboot of the machine. That's not ideal, obviously.

Can you give me a sample of the text that is "filling up" the file?
