in one of my project the database’s table ‘_aiowps_global_meta’ has aroun 400MB of data and I think this is way too much comparing to another projects same table size.
I made an assumption this is due to file scanner module and that it stores some file lists there for comparison so I tried to re-scan, deactivate this module/function, scan when periodical scanner is disabled, even to disable/enable AIOWPS plugin itself but nothing worked to decrease table’s size and the table is always around 400MB when it should be way smaller like 10MB or so.
The project is not very large, it has few thousand files in /uploads/ (around 300MB).
This issue appeared in a period from Oct 28 to 4 Nov as I see previous database backup versions are normal size and only the last was enormous.
My guess is that there should be some bug made or incompatibility between WP version (which was updated automatically) and AIOWPS’s version itself (plugin wasa not updated automatically).
Also no major changes on this project were done or anything similar during the period when database increased dramatically.
I have many other WP projects with AIOWPS plugin and all are OK so this situation is strange…
I am not worried too much but anyway it’s not a good practice to have such a big tables in older versions of MySQL so what should I do in order to clean that exact table or reset scanner module?
Simply delete the table row or what?
How do I drop the file scan results to get my database backup to be small enough if I run into trouble and need to restore a backup…?
Do I need to do this in phpmyadmin?

]]>There’s this hosting app called ‘installatron’ which provides one-click installs. For some reason it places a file named “deleteme.??????.php” in the root web folder, then deletes it. this happens every day, and is normal behavior (if a bit idiotic). The file scanner cannot be told to ignore “deleteme.*.php” because it does not appear to support wildcards in that manner.
Could this functionality be added? Thanks!
