Directories

[JJBMcGardd]

After talking with Alex Roytman on the phone yesterday and doing a go to meeting could not figuare out how to delete the subdirectoeries.
Suggested a call IBM so I called IBM that still not luck now have over 100 hundred subdirectories.

So something with profound must be creating or causing the directories to be created when trying to delete them.

Open for suggestions.

IBM was able to delete all the extra subdirectories.
Still think there is a problem with Profound because we are not doing any create directories.

This is very unusual. We have reviewed the installation process and the package in general and cannot find anything that would have created those folders.

Our installation process will create only the following folders (if not already present):

/www/profoundui
/www/profoundui/conf
/www/profoundui/htdocs

These are done using simple CRTDIR commands and it doesn't appear that they could be going wrong.

The entire directory structure beyond /www/profoundui/htdocs is created by restoring a save file. Checking the save file shows that those extra folders are not there.

The only place in the entire package where a folder is created programaticaly at runtime is when the /screens folder is created inside your Genie skin folder if not already present.

There are no other instances where Profound UI creates folders.

Also, we have never had any other report of this problem from another customer.

The problem was solved with the help of IBM
They used a recursive delete in qshell:
rm -r /www/profoundui/htdocs/profoundui/proddata/profoundui/d

It took a while to run as we had over 100 subdirectories.

I did try this with the help of Profound but we did not let it run long enough.
