I was just wondering where unarchived events and archived events are stored on the hard drive. The reason I'd like to know is because I've been having trouble saving event filters in the ZoneMinder console so I'd just like to create a cron job that deletes unarchived events and keeps archived events at a certain time every month, if I can. Unless, somebody can help me figure out why filters aren't saving, that would be appreciated. Also, if you see a problem with creating a cron job instead, could you please tell me the reason it may not work?
Also, here's the link to the other topic about filtered events not saving.

Where Are Events Stored
Re: Where Are Events Stored
Your location may vary, but I'm running ubuntu server and for me it's stored under /var/cache/zoneminder/events
another option is to use "locate events" in terminal to search for it.
Good luck!

Re: Where Are Events Stored
No -- it's a database flag, no data is actually moved to "archive" the event.AlexB wrote:Thanks, but are archived events stored in a different location?rounddice wrote:Your location may vary, but I'm running ubuntu server and for me it's stored under /var/cache/zoneminder/events
