Author spamming .ser files in temp directory

Hi there

We're having some strange behaviour on our test-environement. We usually create a copy from our productive author as a test system from time to time.

Yesterday we noticed that the author created 1.6 million durboxxxxxxxx.ser files in the temp directory. Thinking those may have come from a long uptime, we shutdown the author and cleaned up the directory. Now 1 day later there are already 150'000 new durbo files whereas our productive author only created 500 of those.

Does someone have a hint what might be causing this many files on the system?

Thanks alot!

Hi Ahatius,

Durbo file in temp directory is created during replication & should cleaned up once replication is successfully on publish instance. Looking at your symptoms you have misconfigured some thing & infinite loop happening causing replication between author/publish in loop.  File a daycare to get official help to find & close that custom infinite loop.

Thanks,

Sham
