Upon further searching of mailing list I came across this.

I re-ran my command with the 'sudo -u xymon' addition and it worked
and xymond_history isn't crashing anymore. <br>
<br>
$ cd /home/xymon/server/bin/<br>
$ sudo -u xymon ./trimhistory --drop --dropsvcs --droplogs
--cutoff=`date +%s --date="1 Jan 2019"` --progress<br>

I ran the following command to trim my very old log history and
ever since then I'm getting the following crash alert. Also when
reviewing history via the webpage I get results but the time
stamps are wonky. I suspect it's because of the program crashing.<br>
Anyone know how to fix?<br>
<br>
Trimhistory command I used:<br>
$ ./trimhistory --drop --dropsvcs --droplogs --cutoff=`date +%s
--date="1 Jan 2019"` --progress<br>
<br>
Alert I'm receiving:<br>
<blockquote type="cite">
