Maintenence Cleanup Task does not delete backup files mat <mat[ at ]notarealdotcom.adr> 12/2/2008 7:33:52 PM I'm testing a new Mainentence Cleanup Task that runs inside the same subprocess as the backup task. I have it set up to delete .bak files in the backup dir that are older than 1 hour (for testing). When I run the task, the backup runs successfully but no older backups are ever deleted. Can anyone offer a suggestion as to why? The cleanup task is enabled; it's looking in the correct dir for .bak files; it's looking for backup files not text reports. I just can't see what the issue might be. There are no errors reported when I execute the task.
