Too many directories in RSS cache   (#2903)
Issue

RSS caching generates too many directories and doesn't remove them properly when they are no longer needed.

Every few months WebGUI adds over 32000 directories in /tmp/WebGUICache/RSS/ and will generate the following error (and this might slow down the server too):

Caught exception executing workflow activity pbwfactivity0000000012 for instance f6D8uYR
2VByfl1vfgYeO5g which reported mkdir /tmp/WebGUICache/RSS/JD6qYqAaXfZvmYE0X3+TPw: Too many links at /data/WebGUI/lib/WebGUI/Cache/FileCache.pm line 244

This happens on all our WG7 servers.

How many syndicated content assets do you have on your site? And how many URLs in each?

We have about 20 sites with all 1 syndicated content item (which is the default plainblack feed)

If it's not a real bug maybe you can point us to the file that is suppose to clean up the data in the /tmp/WebGUICache/RSS directory (WebGUI::Workflow::Activity::CleanFileCache only cleans the cache directory from the current website or not?)

I think it would be a good idea to use a cron job to empty the RSS folder periodically.

Fixed in 7.3.16. The cleanup is now in the WebGUI::Workflow::Activity::CleanFileCache workflow activity.
