Bug #: 36085
Summary: temp files left around from some uploads (maybe
uploads of new versions only?)
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Uploading
AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
ReportedBy: ar...@wikimedia.org
CC: bryan.tongm...@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
I happened to poke around on ms7 (server with originals of uploaded media), and
noticed that in wikipedia/commons/temp there's about 800GB of cruft accumulated
from 2008 (!) til now. Filenames all look like
YYYYMMDDHHMMSS!YYYYMMDDHHMMSS!phpXXXXXX.png or YYYYMMDDHHMMSS!phpXXXXXX.jpg and
you find them in the temp directories underneath every project image dir but
commons is the worst case.
Sure, I guess we could do a find on 800-something project dirs or on (ugh) the
whole 18T filesystem for temp/* but I dunno how feasible that's going to be
once media gets moved into Swift. So maybe there could be some sort of MW
cleanup job to take care of this periodically. Thoughts?
