Hello everyone,

I've been testing openkm 6.2 community edition, and as i'm learning about it, I'm using the bundle right "out of the box" with hsqldb. The bundle on linux is an excellent product, and it behaved perfectly until I uploaded a 12GB folder into the repository.

At import time, it went just well, but after a couple of days, it became unusable, extremely slow. Even though I've tried almost any solution posted in the forums, I can't delete the uploaded folder, it goes on just forever and gives me a timeout exception. No matter what I do, it takes it forever to do anything, and I really need to recover some files from inside of it.

I would like to delete that folder recursively, reindex, and migrate the whole repository to mysql, and as it seems that it can't be done from within the gui, I would like to ask you for help or guidance on scripting in order to do so.

Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide!

First of all stop openkm and restart again.
Then go to administration > export and try to export entire repository ( I suggest export with all checkbox options checked ).

Before doing it, tell me something about this folder. Can you see what is into ?
