Exact same issue here today. I suspect the issue is with Mandrill.

Thanks Tobias.

I reviewed the post you linked to prior to posting. What I am not clear on is precisely what command to trigger in a cron job for the auto import.

Does anyone have this info?

Thank you

Thank you for your time. This is very helpful.

I was worried to post it in a sysadmin forum in case anyone said it should be in a WordPress forum ??

Linux, there will be a separate hosting account for each blog. May be using suPHP.

What better place then in the WordPress installation question to inquire about the mass installation of WordPress?

I did some testing.

With WP Cache and Super Cache both enabled, expired files just pile up, never being deleted irrespective of when I set expiry time to.

With the “HALF ON” option set (Super Cache Disabled, only legacy WP-Cache caching) the plugin works perfectly with files being cached and expired files being deleted.

I did test switching “Disable file locking” on with no change to the above findings.

Certainly on Dreamhost and Hostgator servers this is the problem I’ve seen…legacy cache works and expired files are removed, super cache works but expired files pile-up.

I’d add that this is not Hostgator-specific, same with other hosting cos. on which I run Super Cache.

What determines how file are removed?

I use Dreamhost Private Server and have the same problem.

I am using a Dreamhost server and no matter what I do the files are not removed.

Update from me, too!

Seting it to /tmp/mydomain/ works BUT files are not being removed on expiry and my /tmp/ folder just filled up and crashed the site and MySQL.

So I will use Bonusball’s suggestion and if that doesn’t work, regrettably, find a different web host.

Duh! man answers own post – this works:

<?php
 if (has_tag(array('carrot','potato','bean'))) {
	include(TEMPLATEPATH . "/vegetables.php");
 if 	(has_tag(array('chicken','beef','pork'))) {
	include(TEMPLATEPATH . "/meat.php");
 if 	(has_tag(array('cod','salmon','tilapia'))) {
	include(TEMPLATEPATH . "/fish.php");
 } else {
	include(TEMPLATEPATH . "/default.php");
}
?>

I was about to post the same question. Expired files need to be removed manually.

Using WP 2.7 and Super Cache 0.8.7

Thanks.

That will/may work but you may still get memory spikes as your directories within your account are on NFS volumes.

What I found works and had this confirmed with Dreamhost tech. is to write to /tmp/

However if two DH customers both did that you’d be rewriting each others’ .htaccess so I did this in cache config:

$cache_path = '/tmp/mydomain/';
$file_prefix = 'wp-cache-mydomain-';

HTH

I’ve no solution but can attest to the fact this happens on regular Dreamhost hosting not just on Private Server.

I’ll run some tests and let you know what I find.

Pester the developer?

I was about to install WP 2.5 but read that this is one of the few unsupported plugins.

Well, here’s the problem/fix…bug?

My host uses Apache’s mod_sec and that Apache module “thought” this was a security issue

Hosting Company said:

So it is a RegEx Pattern matching issue.

However for now, after speaking with a supervisor, we believe the rule set we
have is sufficient. Better to err on the side of caution. The way in which
your software calls it’s mysql injection is flagging mod_sec. Mod_Sec is a
sort of standard which all people have available to them. In this way, when a
program is written, they *should* be able to make sure it is compliant.
