Extension of database history time

Raoul3 years ago

Hi,

After a struggle of two weeks I managed to get the Traccar GPS platform completely running on my own server.
What a great program!!

Now I would like to save the data in my database for a longer period.
Could possibly anybody tell me how to change the database history time interval from -7 to another number of days?

Thanks!!

If you mean this way

https://www.traccar.org/clear-history/

Database history length is controlled by INTERVAL -7 DAY. In the example we remove values older than 7 days. Note that the cut-off time rounded to a date.

So if you want keep 100 days, - 7 change to -100

but
in config file

/opt/traccar/conf/default.xml

is also

<entry key='database.historyDays'>100</entry>

here change also

By default data is stored forever.
