Have a FreePBX system (old one, upgraded multiple times) that has a good part of the drive taken up by old module zip files in
/var/www/html/admin/modules/_cache
Can I delete these? It’s literally gigabytes of data and really old versions of the modules.
Yes. You can delete it.
There was probably a time in the distant fpbx history when caching module tarballs offered some value, but I can’t think of any value to it today. It probably does more harm than good now, as sometimes a corrupted file gets stored there and causes issues. I also note that in advanced settings there’s an option to skip module admin cache, but it doesn’t prevent fpbx from saving files there, it just never looks at them again.
Perfect, kind of what I anticipated the answer would be but I appreciate the re-assurance! Thanks guys!
