You configured /config/repository/repository.xml for version purging as follows:

...

     <versioning>

         <limits default="0">

             <limit value="0">

                 <prefix value="/system/work/cache/" />

      </limit>

</limits>

<purge age="30" start="07.18.2008 12:00:00" interval="7" />

</versioning>

...

However, the purging does not start at the specified time.

Solution

Change the date format from mm.dd.YYYY to dd.mm.YYYY.

Additional information

Start time expects the date format dd.mm.YYYY.
