can upload directory be purged to save disk space?

Hello/Hi/Greetings,

Well, I am running short on disk space and there is this "upload" directory tree which uses a chunk of disk space.

Can the files in there removed  and what would be the consequences?

Thanks,


Piwigo version: how would I find out? sure smaller than 2.9.0 - says "Unable to dump database."
PHP version: PHP 5.5.5-1
MySQL version: mysql  Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.55, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.2

The upload folder is where all of your original (full-sized) images are. If you purged that, you'd lose all your photos.

Thanks - cleaned up disk, now enough space, no need to remove the originally uploaded image.
