My bonita directory keeps growing and is now 6GB. It seems to be filled with temp files, can I safely delete them ?

Hi,

I’m using Bonita Studio 7.0.1 since its release and I noticed the installation folder keeps getting bigger day after day. It is now 6GB and I’m running out of disk space (I work on a virtual machine with only 20GB).

The workspace/tomcat/bonita/engine-server/work/platform directory is the biggest one and is filled with what seems to be old instances of bonita engine : bonita_engine_@.

These folders only contains some *.jar.jar.tmp files. I assume these are some kind of temporary files left behind by the engine after it has been stopped.

Before deleting them, I want to make sure they’re no longer needed by Bonita.

Yes I complained about this with 6.x…and there was a fix put in it.

I just delete the contents of the directory…This could be a new issue that needs to be looked at…

Back it up first
Delete things
try it and see what happens
