Sure. I'm using BaseX 8.2.3 on linux, using the C# client located at https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/blob/master/basex-api/src/main/c%23/BaseXClient.cs.The DB, as reported by the rest interface: <rest:database resources="1015172" size="10063643321">mferrari_test_6</rest:database> This is my simplified test function: static void DoSingleDeleteProcessing(string db) { int localId = 310072; BaseXClient.Session baseXClientSession = new BaseXClient.Session(server, 1984, user, password); baseXClientSession.Execute("open " + db); string filename = "prueba" + localId.ToString("D8") + ".xml"; baseXClientSession.Execute("DELETE " + filename); baseXClientSession.Close(); } This is what I get in the logs: 17:20:22.253 10.1.5.144:61340 admin REQUEST OPEN mferrari_test_6 39.83 ms17:20:22.321 10.1.5.144:61340 admin OK Database 'mferrari_test_6' was opened in 68.44 ms. 68.54 ms17:20:22.324 10.1.5.144:61340 admin REQUEST DELETE prueba00310072.xml 1.47 ms17:21:20.794 10.1.5.144:61340 admin OK 1 resource(s) deleted in 58469.92 ms. 58469.98 ms
A Replace on the same DB results in the following entries: 17:24:38.070 10.1.5.144:61359 admin REQUEST OPEN mferrari_test_6 39.97 ms17:24:38.138 10.1.5.144:61359 admin OK Database 'mferrari_test_6' was opened in 67.69 ms. 67.79 ms17:24:38.170 10.1.5.144:61359 admin REQUEST REPLACE prueba00310071.xml [...] 0.34 ms17:24:38.548 10.1.5.144:61359 admin OK 0 resource(s) replaced in 377.84 ms. 377.98 ms Thanks!
