Resolved Users /.cagefs/opt/alt/php74/var/lib/php/session filled with 400-500k files

Hello,

I tried running tmpwatch manually but nothing happend:

[email protected]:~# cagefsctl -v --tmpwatch
[email protected]:~# du -h /home/username/.cagefs/opt/alt/php74/var/lib/php
1.9G /home/username/.cagefs/opt/alt/php74/var/lib/php/session
1.9G /home/username/.cagefs/opt/alt/php74/var/lib/php

So I manually edited /etc/cagefs/cagefs.ini and added that folder:
[common]
tmpwatch = /usr/sbin/tmpwatch -umclq 72
tmpwatch_dirs=/opt/alt/php74/var/lib/php/session

Then I ran tmpwatch again manually and then files where cleaned:
0 /home/username/.cagefs/opt/alt/php74/var/lib/php/session

Why are these files/folders not cleaned automatically?
I also checked docs here:
https://docs.cloudlinux.com/cloudlinux_os_components/#tmp-directories

But I cannot see what we're missing.

Hello Morten,
Thank you for reaching out! In the dock you followed it states:
"For cPanel servers, CageFS version 6.0-42 or higher performs cleaning of PHP sessions based on session.gc_maxlifetime and session.save_path directives specified in proper php.ini files."
In this case, you need to check which version of Cagefs you have on the server, if 6.0-42 or higher, then you need to check the value of the session.save_path variable
in /opt/alt/php74/etc/php.ini - maybe it is not equal to /opt/alt/php74/var/lib/php/session, so those session files were not cleaned by the crown.
It would be better if you create a ticket here https://cloudlinux.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/requests/new and technical experts will help you asap.
Thank you for contacting us.
