To clean up session on my production environment I thought of calling the sessions2trash.py this way:
nohup python ~/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S admin -R scripts/sessions2trash.py -A -o -x 3600 -f -v -s & nohup python ~/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S myleonexus -R scripts/sessions2trash.py -A -o -x 3600 -f -v -s & At Webfaction they said: But note that cron jobs are better for such periodic tasks rather than having a long-running process which consumes memory unnecessary. So I added the following lines to my cron tab: */5 * * * * ~/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S admin -R scripts/sessions2trash.py & */5 * * * * ~/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S mypynex -R scripts/sessions2trash.py Which resulted in my processes being killed: Memory usage way over your limit - processes killed pynex - 14MB - 0:56:16 - 345414 - python /home/pynex/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S mypynex -R scripts/sessions2trash.py pynex - 13MB - 0:56:16 - 345443 - python /home/pynex/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S admin -R scripts/sessions2trash.py pynex - 21MB - 0:51:16 - 353628 - python /home/pynex/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S mypynex -R scripts/sessions2trash.py pynex - 23MB - 0:51:16 - 353655 - python /home/pynex/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S admin -R scripts/sessions2trash.py pynex - 23MB - 0:46:16 - 364722 - python /home/pynex/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S admin -R scripts/sessions2trash.py pynex - 21MB - 0:46:16 - 364740 - python /home/pynex/webapps/w2p/web2py/web2py.py -S mypynex -R scripts/sessions2trash.py and so on ... I have no idea why this happens and how to solve the issue, I hope one of you can explain why this doesn't clean up sessions correctly.
