Kopano cleanup not functioning

bhuisman

@BMWfan The latest version of the script can be found in the Core-tools bitbucket repository: https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KSC/repos/core-tools/browse/kopano-cleanup

I have also updated the KB article with the correct link…

@bhuisman thanks.

But the problem still exists:

 python kopano-cleanup.py --user Daniel --junk --wastebasket --days 10
Running script for 'Daniel'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "kopano-cleanup.py", line 121, in <module>
    main()
  File "kopano-cleanup.py", line 107, in main
    deleteitems(options, user, folder)
  File "kopano-cleanup.py", line 88, in deleteitems
    print('Deleted {}  item(s) for user \'{}\' in folder \'{}\''.format(itemcount, user.name.decode('utf-8'), folder.name.decode('utf-8')))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/encodings/utf_8.py", line 16, in decode
    return codecs.utf_8_decode(input, errors, True)
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf6' in position 3: ordinal not in range(128)

I understand the problem that my wastebasket is called “Gelöschte Objekte” and thats a umlaut, but iam not really familiar with python code.

Do you have a chance to change something there?

Thanks in advance

bhuisman

@BMWfan hmm, that is not really my expertise - I will ask around.

BMWfan

@bhuisman could you find someone who is familiar with it?

@BMWfan the version on https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KSC/repos/core-tools/browse/kopano-cleanup/kopano-cleanup.py should fix this issue now

hi,
which version of python is required?

./kopano-cleanup.py --user ***–junk --wastebaket --days 30
./kopano-cleanup.py: Zeile 1: Syntaxfehler beim unerwarteten Wort »<«
./kopano-cleanup.py: Zeile 1: `<!DOCTYPE html><html lang=“en”><head><meta charset=“utf-8”><meta http-equiv=“X-UA-Compatible” content=“IE=edge”><title>Source of kopano-cleanup.py - Core-tools - Bitbucket</title><script>’

Doesn’t matter if python 2.7, 3 opder 3.6 is used.
best regards

@AnotherAndy

For your file you need a browser as you downloaded the html page.

In stash/bitbucket you need to press the ‘Raw file’ button first to download directly from there

This link will give you the python file
https://stash.kopano.io/projects/KSC/repos/core-tools/raw/kopano-cleanup/kopano-cleanup.py

It shouldn’t matter if you use python 2 or 3

hi @robing ,
thanks, now it looks good.

python ./kopano-cleanup.py --user –wastebasket --days 30
Running script for '’
Deleted 5 item(s) for user ‘****’ in folder ‘Gelöschte Objekte’

I think no @BMWfan can also test it.
best regards

BMWfan

@robing thanks but for me is it not working:

python kopano-cleanup.py --user Daniel --wastebasket --days=10
Running script for 'Daniel'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "kopano-cleanup.py", line 126, in <module>
    main()
  File "kopano-cleanup.py", line 112, in main
    deleteitems(options, user, folder)
  File "kopano-cleanup.py", line 93, in deleteitems
    print('Deleted {}  item(s) for user \'{}\' in folder \'{}\''.format(itemcount, _encode(user.name), _encode(folder.name)))
  File "kopano-cleanup.py", line 16, in _encode
    return s.encode(sys.stdout.encoding or 'utf8')
UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf6' in position 3: ordinal not in range(128)

@BMWfan it seems that your terminal does not support utf-8 characters.

BMWfan

@fbartels thank you for your fast reply.
Could you tell me how could i solve that? Its a debian 9 operating system.

fbartels

The OS from where you are connecting is Debian 9? Or is the OS of the server Debian 9?

BMWfan

@fbartels the OS from where i connecting is Windows 10. The OS on which i connecting is Debian 9.

fbartels

@BMWfan and what terminal/client are you using to connect? Like I said it seems this terminal does not seem to support utf-8.

@fbartels thanks, this explanations from your provided link helped me.
Thatswhy i started the script in the Background python kopano-cleanup.py --user Daniel --wastebasket --days=0 & and get this output:

Deleted 3  item(s) for user 'Daniel' in folder 'Gelöschte Objekte'

The items are also really removed.
