I can see that PurgeWhenFull can have its uses but I'm not sure it is answering the issue I've raised, which is that the only option for the number of events I can view is 10, 25, 50, 100, 200 or ALL. If I have, say 5,000 events 200 at a time is too small and ALL is too large. WEB_EVENTS_PER_PAGE is...

Thank you. I will check the logs when this happens again.

But doesn't Purge when full remove them without reviewing them?

If one of the columns of Day, Hour, Week or Month is below the failing number then open those first and they should delete.

I have just come across another problem when trying to delete events. When the Events count is over a value I have yet to determine, but possibly 500, if I view ALL events and select all of them and then click Delete and confirm, nothing gets deleted.

I have been looking deeper into this and I have found three problems with the event data being written into the database: 1. The Frames count may be incorrect when compared with the number of entries in the events filestore - so far I have only found that the Frames count is one less than the filest...

Not sure what the comment about deleting them as a way of showing they have been reviewed. Whether or not they have been reviewed at some point they will need to be deleted, whether they have been reviewed or not.

Yes, there is still the option of WEB_EVENTS_PER_PAGE but it doesn't appear to do anything. Events per page seems be controlled by the drop down at the bottom of the events page.

I just deleted around 70 events and went back to the console and refreshed it 5 or 6 times before the count reached zero. Is there something my system is doing to slow down the delete processing? On previous versions of ZM the delete confirm would stay there until the delete was complete so maybe th...

Unless I am mistaken, versions 1.34 and before had the number of rows to display in the options and this dropdown option has only appeared recently. Your mechanism is something I hadn't considered so that is something useful to know.

Sorry but don't understand the question. I review my events periodically and then want to delete them. What I am questioning is why the option is for small number up to 200 and the next option is All. What was wrong with the previous mechanism which allowed you to specify the number per page.

I just confirmed that the problem seems to be the refresh of the event list. If I manually refresh the events will eventually all disappear so the problem is that the view is definitely refreshing before the background task has completed.

I have also discovered that there is a significant delay in getting the count on the console update. I just asked the even view to delete all events. When it refreshed there was still a long list. The console had a different number so I went back to the event list but the top event couldn't be found...

I've only just moved on to 1.36.7 but I also was trying out 1.37.1 and they both have the same problem. I replay gapless events and many events replay OK but then one of them stalls. Click on the Next button and it goes back to a previous event and then stalls in the same place again. On further dig...

On previous versions of ZM, if I remember correctly, I could chose the number of events per page. The Web Options page still has 'Web Events per page in paged mode' but I can only use a drop down which gives me 10, 25, 50, 100, 200 or All. When I have a large number of events it was much easier to c...
