removing job from queue results in orphaned job

Post by dumbcat »

Hi all.

I'm using version 0.7.18 | smpl skin | python source on Linux (Red Hat).

When I delete a job from the queue, it does not remove the temporary folder
for that job from the temp dir. The log says "cannot remove folder".

upon further investigation, i found that the dir contain an attrib file and an nzb.gz file.
thats why the rmdir failed i guess. is there a solution to this other than always going
to the orphaned jobs page and removing each one manually?

thank you lots.

Does it also fail when using the standard (Plush) skin?

You're right.
The "smpl" skin hasn't been updated for quite a while and does not
have all features. It doesn't have the popup that gives you the choice
between just erasing the item from the queue and erasing all files as well.
The behaviour has been the same since it was introduced and we have
no one interested in maintaining this internally very complicated skin.

Thank you for the reply. That makes sense. Too bad because I really enjoy the smpl skin.

Yes, it's quite fast and efficient compared to the standard one.
Should we get someone interested in maintaining it, it will be revived.
