    pesky temp files



    We have been having problems with temp files of the type
    MV_FUP00000001.dat in
    the Mivadata root directory. (As in I just had to delete 20 of them
    totallyng
    140MB which caused the client to run out of disk quota).

    I understand they are the temp files used to store uploads until the upload
    handler functions can deal with them, and I am guessing that they have
    been left
    behind because the upload fails in some way.

    Questions - should Empresa be cleaning these up in some way, or after some
    time?
    - Have there been any improvements in handling temp files since 3.97?
    - Once an upload fails, if the user tries again, is there any chance of a
    RESUME happening and the temp file being used with the upload being
    restarted
    from whence it broke off? (the only thing which would justify the files
    being
    left lying around).
    Does Miva, perchance keep an index of these files?

    In the meantime, I guess I'd better just write a script to kill any of
    them more
    than a day old.
