You can enable repository connector debug logging by adding this to your
properties.xml:

<property name="org.apache.manifoldcf.connectors" value="DEBUG"/>

Having said that, the cleanup phase for all connectors is executed by the
framework.  We know the framework works because we have numerous
integration tests that exercise it.  But it's up to the ES connector to
delete documents and log the fact that it is deleting documents.  So I
suspect that it is the ES connector's delete functionality that is not
working properly.

If you told me that *no* documents show up in the Simple History as being
deleted during the cleanup phase, then there would obviously be a simple ES
connector bug involved.  But if there are multiple documents that *do* get
deleted, it's more complex than that.  Do you ever see *any* documents
deleted during the cleanup phase in the Simple History with the ES
connector?

Another easy check is to set up exactly the same job but with the output
going to the Null Output Connector.  This connector definitely logs
everything it sees.  Compare and contrast vs the ES output connector.  If
you see a difference, it's likely a bug in the ES connector that we'll have
to figure out.

Thanks,
