I cannot enter in zm to use ocion of PurgeWhenFull

Hi,

I think that you can manually delete some 'events' folders to free some HD space and getting back access to your ZM console.

The path is '/var/www/html/zm/events/x' where x correspond to your monitor number. Go inside and you will see folder named by a number, corresponding to the event number.
Just delete some of them.

This procedure must be confirmed by zoneminder or other people that knows what they are doing this is just my solution.

Regards,

Oliver

i to do this when i forget to set purgewhenful

Deleting events manually is ok provided zmaudit is running. If it is (which it will be unless you have turned it off) then it will notice the missing event files and remove them from the database. However this may not take place for a few minutes after you have deleted the files so for that period the filesystem and database will not be consistent.
