What's a .OPN file?

[acompton]

I notice my acatalog directory has files named <sessionid>.session.OPN
Like session files, they go away after a while. They have zero length.
Any idea what they are? I think they started appearing after upgrading to 7.0.7

Hi,

The .session.OPN files are creatd if you have Paypal or Nochex set as a payment method. They were introduced in v6.1.4.

Can these files be removed safely ? some of mine go back to 2009 ?

Thanks.

Yes, they are abandoned carts and it is reasonable to assume after 3 years they are not likley to come back and buy.

I can't remmber if available back in v7 but later versions you can set Actinic to purge session files after say 30 days. Don't confuse them with .ORD files which are orders awaiting download.

I would download the old .OPN files to your desktop, delete from the server and monitor things for a while before finally deleting from your PC
