Greetings All,
I have a question.
How do I remove old files listings that are no longer existing on the drive.
I had a hard drive that went bad. Is there a file that I can delete with mystic to accomplish this, that will be regenerated when I start to again to re-build files that are available for download.
This is a example what I am talking about.

Thanks in advance for all replies,

I believe that the "mutil massupload" command should take care of that. On a different note, I've been to Troy, NY many times! My daughter played for RPI's women's hockey team.

You need to edit your mutil.ini file and check for the [PackFileBases] stanza; in it you will find:

remove_missing = false

...and if you change that to "true" and then run:

mutil -run PackFileBases

..it should pack the file bases and at the same time remove any files that are missing from disk.

Hope this helps! =)

Best regards

Wow, what a small world; as it would seem to be when there is a local connection like this.
I also have a connection to RPI, back in the 80's I have been to RPI Houston Field House to see Iron Maiden. I also was at the their recent show in
Washington, D.C. in October of 2022.

Saw Iron Maiden in San Diego (Chula Vista) last year. Still awesome entertainers and performers!
