Before Jamroom offered their own version of Chat "SimpleChat", (which my members and I all love, and which is FREE to us on Jamroom hosting)... I used to use Comet Chat on my Jamroom site.
As soon as JR's chat came along, I switched over to it and am totally happy with it. I deactivated my CC module at the time but left it in place in my ACP basically because i was afraid it might have some template setting that could screw up my Simplechat if removed.
I got brave last week and just deleted the whole CC module via my ACP 'delete module' command.
Yet I continue to see many many Comet Chat files flying by when I run Integrity checks.
My Amazon S3 bucket has recently gone from a monthly bill of around $1.50 ....first to $3.50, and now suddenly to $12. ! But that may be for another thread. Meanwhile, partly for that reason I tried to track down where those remnant CC files were on my server in order to rid myself of CC once and for all.
A couple days ago I connected via FTP to my server and ran a search for anything with either comet or cometchat in the file name. I found a bunch of stuff in my data/media/1/0 folder.... stuff like "201802250910:cometchat_chatroommessages:99CaEwC9C6GG.sql.gz" and I deleted dozens of such files with "cometchat" somewhere in the file name. Now they appear to be back again, and I just now deleted the same 133 duplicated/backup files AGAIN. I don't know how they reappeared, but they are sets of duplicates that look to have been backed up. I continue seeing lots of "optimizing table" and "repairing table" cometchat files when doing integrity checks.
Where/how can I finally delete all these annoying CC remnant and vestige files?
Please see the below screenshots of both my Integrity checks and also my Amazon S3 bucket....
