Hi,
how can I confirm that reports have been archived and old logfiles can be deleted?
I have a cron running, also archiving should be done with generating reports in the browser. But I am not sure if the archiving really is executed.
Thanks for any help in advance!
Hi @bnetz ,
Are you storing archive logs in a separate file? From the log file you can check the archive job is being completed successfully or not.
5 * * * * www-data /usr/bin/php /path/to/matomo/console core:archive --url=http://example.org/matomo/ > /home/example/matomo-archive.log
For example, matomo-archive.log file will get the logs of archive job.
Thanks, @Naser_Aslam - yes, I store them separately, but I am not sure if this means 100% it was done successful:

LOAD DATA INFILE would improve performance, but archiving is done successfully without it.
check here: How do I get LOAD DATA INFILE to work on my server? FAQ - Analytics Platform - Matomo
with those numbers of visits and that archiving duration you are fine without it i guess.

Hi @bnetz ,
Yes the archive job is being completed successfully, you can take a look at the following screenshot.
However, you are getting a warning. You can go with this warning but if you fix this issue it will be good for better performance of Matomo.
