Your command line seems ok, except for the fact that you seem to be root already, so no need for sudo.

I don't know if that has anything to do with it though.

also, after the changes, I can bring up an Events window, then the filters window, select a filter (purge when > 3 days old). The Events window gets purged, but the event count in the main console remains the same. If I close the Events window then re-open it, the old events are back. I also waited ...

I did the edit in /usr/bin/zmfilter.pl as shown in the corrected script example. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- use constant EVENT_PATH => ($Config{ZM_DIR_EVENTS}=~m|/|)?$Config{ZM_DIR_EVENTS}:($...
