HELLO & WELCOME

I have been struggling with this for most of the day! :-/

I have had my FREEPBX server up and running for some time now and as a result have thousands and thousands of records stored but there appears to be no way to clear them?

After googling it appears that they are stored in a database on the server but how do I safely clear any old records and only keep records from 2015 onwards?

You will need to SSH into your server...

Once in run the following commands:

Code: Select all

mysql
use asteriskcdrdb;
DELETE from cdr WHERE calldate < '2015-01-01 00:00:00';

Running the mysql command shown above may result in an error requiring that you login first. If so enter: mysql -u root -p and then press enter, enter the password for user root and once again press enter.

Your CDR should only hold records from 1st January 2015 onwards. :)

This worked! Thanks.
