      thinBackup plugin version 1.17
    • 1.18

      We have configured the ThinBackup plugin to only keep one backup. That means that the plugin takes care to delete older backup folders in the usual "BACKUP" folder.

      In our instance this process fails, the plugin logic is not deleting the old ones, because I think it runs into failures that keeps it from progressing accordingly.

      There are different ERROR log messages that we see:

      There is no more log output that would tell me that the backup process failed or ended and even no message about skipping the clean up of old backup folders. I can just see that the old backup folders remain from day to day and disc usage grows.
