We just ran out of disk space on a webserver and finding the culprit folder is tough. Since, we don't have direct access to some drives, it would be nice to have this running under CF since it can access everything :) We wrote a simple file explorer in CF to browse and delete files, but I'd like to have it auto-recurse through all of the folders and subfolders reporting back large ones. Is there such an app already in CF? -seth ============================================================================== Please access the attached hyperlink for an important electronic communications disclaimer: http://www.credit-suisse.com/legal/en/disclaimer_email_ib.html ==============================================================================

ColdFusion 7 has recursion built into cfdirectory I believe. At least I think Dave Watts said something along those lines a week or two back. <!----------------//------ andy matthews web developer ICGLink, Inc. andy@icglink.com 615.370.1530 x737 --------------//---------> We just ran out of disk space on a webserver and finding the culprit folder is tough.

Still, that would be a huge pain to do a cfdirectory then count all the filesizes. yuck! Time consuming, too. What you need is the ability to get into the underlying OS, which probably already knows the amount of space you are taking, and have left. Here, I made a little command-line app for you, it runs on .NET 2.0 http://www.dopefly.com/junk/DriveSizeAvailable.zip I'ts really fast, takes one parameter, the drive letter, and spits out the drive space available on the given drive. I made it in 5 minutes, so YMMV, but it worked for me, even on network drives :) Oh, .NET 2.0 can be found via windows update. Windows only (unless you can get it to work on mono) -nathan strutz http://www.dopefly.com/ On 4/14/06, Andy Matthews <andy@icglink.com> wrote:

Hah, I totally misunderstood the original post. Fun times. So yeah, CF7 has recursive cfdirectory. If you're on 6, you can probably find a function on cflib to recurse through a directory. Just modify it to delete everything it finds :) -nathan strutz http://www.dopefly.com/ On 4/14/06, Nathan Strutz <strutz@gmail.com> wrote:

Andy/Jacob Very handy, but I'm using BlueDragon. Tried it out of curiosity, but it just listed the current directory. Will inquire with NewAtlanta about it. Thanks this would save time. > ColdFusion 7 has recursion built into cfdirectory I believe. You are correct: http://coldfusioncookbook.com/entry/79/How-do-I-find-the-size-of-a-direc tory?

As someone else mentioned, I think what you need to do is best handled by the OS. You can probably do something with CF, but it's probably going to be time consuming and inefficient. If you're on Linux, you can use the du command in a script, and call this with cfexecute. I'm not sure if there's anything that handy in Windows land...

Well, I'm not so cool as to whip up an example, but you could easily use Java to interact with the File System. Generally it's quite a bit faster at FS stuff than CF (or BD, I'd assume). Heck, I'll go check for a java directory size example... hrm. found some JNDI: JRun and Sun's JNDI FS http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_17957 ** I tried to use the java built in stuff to bypass CF's cfdirectory, but doing a file by file check (needed to get folder size) was waaaay slower. Maybe with a FileFilter for directories it would be faster... neh. Nothing as fast as the native OS I bet. I did find a couple of blog posts stating that the java.io.file method of listing the directory was faster than the cfdirectory command, by more than an order of magnitude, so, if you don't need sizes and whatnot (you do, so nix that)... Eh. Much as I dislike it in practice, cfexecute is your friend here I think. :D -ps I did get a working "cfdirectory" via the java.io.file, if anyone is interested, but it's pretty pointless cuz cfdir was 79ms vs. 8765ms for the java only one that tallies folder size (both recursive on same dir). I did like the idea the blogger(something "b"? barry?) had about using the java vs. cfdirectory. Find orphan files faster than with cfdirectory at least. [-= But definitely not file sizes. Bleh!
