          [OBS-757] Purge script for the eventlog and syslog tables

          Use housekeeping script.

          Tom,
          It looks like you can close this issue now that the housekeeping script was adding in r5653.

          Solomon,
          Did you ever figure out why this script was failing for you? If not, your next step is probably to setup Xdebug and VIM to step through the script from the command line to see where it's flaming out.

          Can you run it without arguments?

          sh# ./db-maintenance.php

          I'm stumped, too. Can you jump on IRC to troubleshoot? My nick is moorereason. I'm on PHP 5.3.

          Nope, I switched that out as the newer versions of discovery use

          chdir(dirname($argv[0])); 

          . I have PHP 5.4.4-14

          Yes, discovery.php, poller and all of my own scripts work. I've verified ownership permissions and selinux is all set the same as discovery.php as well. I'm stumped, I've even gone over the file for syntax errors and while I've replaced a few possible things, nothing has helped.

          I bet it has to do with

          chdir(dirname(__FILE__));

          Try changing it to

          chdir(dirname($argv[0]));

          What version of PHP are you using?

          Solomon,
          Weird. I've been running it the whole time without using php in the command line like that. The beginning of the file is exactly like discovery.php. Does discovery.php work?
