The problem is that you can't remove directories with htcacheclean without generating race conditions wrt. httpd. Assume that htcacheclean removes the last entries from a directory and then removes the directory. At the same time httpd wants to use the directory as it was already there... You'll be better off setting CacheDirLength and CacheDirLevels to sensible values. Try: CacheDirLength 1 CacheDirLevels 2 You can get at most 64^2 directories which is 4096 directories. Any reasonable filesystem can stand that. Now assume an average of 500 cached objects per directory which the filesystem should easily manage. I tend to believe that 2048000 cached objects is quite a lot. If the size of these objects has an average of only 1KB you already have a total cache size of 2GB. Even if you tried 3 for CacheDirLevels it would be 262144 directories maximum which should be still fine for any reasonable filesystem. -- Andreas Steinmetz SPAMmers use [EMAIL PROTECTED]
