Nuking outdated content

         

crux

My company has an intranet running on apache on solaris and we are looking for a good way to find out what content hasnt been hit in a while (about 180 days) and nuke it or move it to an archive.. Can anybody recommend a product to do this? I know there are things out there that will do this but i have been having trouble finding anybody who will actually recommend one?

Thanks!

I haven't heard of anything like that. The problem is that both script-based and log analysis tracking systems can show data only on pages that actually _have_ been requested.

how big is the logfile per day? do you have the logfiles still in place?

put them all into a db (mysql, access). create a second table with all your files. and then run a query to get all files without which don't show a request in the logfiles. this is how i would do it.

this works only if you have static files without rewrite rules and parameters. if you use stuff like this, it gets a bit more complicated.
