Hello All,

Thanks for the help in advance. Is it possible to configure Weblogic 8.1.2 to clean up files in a temp directory within a deployed web application?

For example:
If i have a web application deployed at C:\bea\user_projects\domains\mydomain\applications\MyWebApp\

and have files which are written to

C:\bea\user_projects\domains\mydomain\applications\MyWebApp\temp

Is it possible to configure Weblogic to delete all files within the temp directory, at a designated time (perhaps every 48 hours)?

I'm assuming it isn't possible, and I will have to create a CleanUpServlet of sorts.

Thanks,
J.

you may consider to program a postStop listener

Hello Hank,

Thanks for the response. I took a look at the ApplicationLifecycleListener events and I believe these events are only executed once per "lifecycle".

I'd essentially like the Web Application to check the /temp directory every 24 hrs and delete all files which are 4 hours or older.

It looks as if I will have to implement a servlet which implements a Timer Event and Listener.

Please advise me if there is another methodology within Weblogic.

Kind Regards,
J.
