      We have a production and test server hosting ProGet for our company (paid).

      We are trying to implement a retention policy in Test and then Prod when ready. I have tried this in dry run mode and outside dry run mode with no results.

      The Rule set up is:
      Delete cached connector packages
      Delete old versions (all except latest 30 versions)

      When I go and check the Executions section for the feed cleanup log, it outputs:

      Beginning cleanup for Octopus (NuGet) feed.
      Starting feed retention check...
      Checking for feed retention rules...
      Feed has 1 retention rule.
      Checking rule 1...
      Only delete cached packages.
      Never delete the most recent 30 versions of packages.
      Finding packages that match retention rule 1...
      Getting count of matching packages...
      0 packages qualify for deletion under this rule.
      Deleting matching packages...
      Dry run mode is set; nothing will actually be deleted.
      Deleted 0 packages (0 KB total).
      Done checking rule 1.
      Feed retention check completed.
      Cleanup complete.

      However, there are packages with 30+ versions in this feed that have not been deleted or shown to be deleted in dry run.

      Can you assist?

      Product: ProGet
      Version: 5.1.4

        Keep in mind that retention rules work on an AND basis, so when you select:

        • Delete cached connector packages
        • Delete old versions (all except latest 30 versions)

        You get only packages that match BOTH of those rules:

        • Only delete cached packages.
        • Never delete the most recent 30 versions of packages.

        I'm guessing that your packages don't match BOTH those rules;
