WalkerJ Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Is it safe to move files into the .Recycle.Bin folder directly? For example, the DupeGuru duplicate file finding utility has an option to either delete duplicate files or move them to a "trash" folder somewhere. On my Synology NAS, I had it move them to the system trash folder, which worked fine. Would doing the same on Unraid, having DupeGuru move the files to be deleted to the .Recycle.Bin folder cause any problems? Quote Link to comment

Brian Markland Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Does RecycleBin system hook into file delete or is it a registered action on samba delete? The reason I ask is that I have a share that is also the /home for a VM through virtio mount (samba mount is too linear). It is used primarily as an FTP backup endpoint. After some tests, I could get a standard SMB connection to generate a recycle bin log entry but with the virtio mount, it isn't generating a log entry or recycling the file. I tried changing /home to a CIFS mount but nah, that ain't going to work with my current hardware / network. I'm open to suggestions. I'm trying to reduce the number of duplicate files at the client end during backups (it is a basic mirror operation over FTP after backup.gz is created). I figured Recycle Bin set to about 3 mos or so, let the backup software delete its old backups more regularly instead of holding 3 to 5 times the size of the site being backed up. Some of these sites are getting pretty heavy in the GBs and backups stack up fast. Great plugin btw, thanks for picking up the torch! Quote Link to comment
CS01-HS Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I wish I'd investigated more before "fixing" it but I noticed my cache was much fuller than it should be. Recycle Bin reported 11GB used on my (cache-enabled) Download share but according Krusader it was actually 260GB: Emptying the share's Recycle Bin from the settings page got it down to 0. Anyone else seen that? (I have mover tuning setup to exclude .Recycle.Bin dirs but I don't think that would affect it.) Quote Link to comment
Caennanu Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Gday all, So since the misses started cleaning up her pictures too frantically, i decided to install this plugin and create a recycle bin. However, it doesn't seem to work. I have installed it via the app section, enabled the recyclebin plugin, restarted to make sure it would stick, changes the age days to 21 and kept the rest default. But, upon deleting files, no bin is created . . . What is wrong? Im using 6.10.0 RC2 Quote Link to comment
Caennanu Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 Ok, i think i found the issue. Since i'm using the 'root' share as my main working area, it doesn't seem to work. But when i map a folder in the root to a share, it works. Any way i can have it work on the 'root' share too? with root share, i mean the way as instructed in this video: Quote Link to comment

Because the recycle bin plugin is unaware of the share defined in the smb-extra.conf, it cannot configure the recycle bin for that share. I have suggested adding the 'rootshare' feature into Unraid and then the recycle bin plugin would configure the 'rootshare' properly. It can't be manually done because there are too many configurable parameters to the recycle bin. Quote Link to comment

dlandon Posted March 11, 2022 Author Share Posted March 11, 2022 There is a new file manager plugin that replaces the built in file browser and has a lot more functionality. It makes recovering files from the recycle bin a lot smoother. Go to CA and search for "File Manager'. Install the Dynamix File Manager. Once you've done that, you can click on the browse icon in the recycle bin plugin shares page and you'll see what you can do. 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm on 6.9.2 and searched for both "dynamix" and "file manager" and I'm not seeing that plugin on CA. Quote Link to comment

You can do that, but it will get changed when the recycle bin is restarted, or when you reboot the server. Quote Link to comment

dlandon Posted March 14, 2022 Author Share Posted March 14, 2022 Set up a User Script to run on a cron for the time you want and run this command: /usr/local/emhttp/plugins/recycle.bin/scripts/rc.recycle.bin cron &> /dev/null 1 Quote Link to comment

starbetrayer Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) @dlandon, I am having issues with the latest version of the plugin. Usually, I restart it after an update and it detects the files in .recyclebin but it doesn't appear to be the case this time. The folder is now titled : " .Recycle.Bin" Edited March 21, 2022 by starbetrayer Quote Link to comment
