Mark,

 I just tried version 2.1.14 and it works ;-). Thanks for fixing
the problem.

What does -d2 say?

The problem is that the link only will be deleted if link has the same owner as the user that runs cfagent. I think we must make an execption in case root is running cfagent or add an extra option to tidy that prevents this owner check.

Maybe i am doing something wrong or someone else has an answer for me.
I am using cfengine version 2.1.13

After an job has finished i want to to delete all the files in /scratch
with the following config:

============================================
control:

actionsequence = ( tidy )

tidy:
  /scratch
    pattern=* age=0 recurse=inf rmdirs=sub
    dirlinks=tidy links=tidy

============================================


This will delete nearly everthing exepct links to existent directories, eg: /scratch/bas_link -----> /home/sara/bas


Is this an bug or does somebody else an solution? Files actionsequence would not work because it is an link to existent directory.


I know 'rmdirs' overrides the 'dirlinks' option but i want an option that deletes everything als dirlinks ;-)
