Hi folks!
Im using Zoneminder 1.24.2 and my problem is that the "PurgeWhenFull" filter does not work.

For testing I set the settings down to 50%. "Delete all matches" is checked.
But now 52% of diskspace is full and it zoneminder doesnt delete any images.

Has somebody the same error? What can I do. A fee weeks ago my disk was full and I have to delete the videos manually.

Many thx for your support!

When I excecute the PurgeWhenFull Filter manually than the error

"Notice: Undefined variable: tempFilterName in /usr/share/zoneminder/skins/classic/views/events.php on line 29"

is shown at the top at the page.

I need some support please.

Did you put the % symbol in the number field? If so, it's probably causing the error. Try and type the number value without the symbol and save it, but if you get an error while trying to save, create a new filter and save it using the name PurgeWhenFull so it overwrites the broken filter.

Also, try saving the filter to run in background and check the options > system > FILTER_EXECUTE_INTERVAL

hm. It seems like a language bug. Im using de_de and now I switch to en_us and the error is gone. But it delete nothing. May be I have to wait a little bit.
