My backups are not being deleted either, even though settings are set to only keep 1 copy.
4 of my courses have over 20 backups and are increasing 1 every day. To further complicate things I cannot understand why these 4 backups are occurring to begin with, as they are not being updated.
I'm using moodle 2.7, windows 2008/IIS. The course backups folder has Full Control permissions for the SYSTEM and IUSR user names so I didnt think it was a permissions issue.
Does moodle not recognize the previous backups existence because the date is included in the name, so it appears different each day?
ie backup-moodle2-course-4488-2016wi_busi_3324_01_16_18-20160124-1017
ie backup-moodle2-course-4488-2016wi_busi_3324_01_16_18-20160123-1017
Notice the 23 and 24 for the day of month.
Any suggestions on troubleshooting this, are there some logs I should be reviewing?
