# Saiku: How to Remove Old Cubes from Drop Down List

Asked by wexxo on 2018-09-04

Dear Support Team,

I have been playing/working with a number of surveys over the years. Now in Collect, the list of selectable cubes in the Saiku drop-down list has become rather long (still including surveys that have been deleted). How can I clean up this list? Maybe that would also solve my issue that the data I want to actually visualize is not showing up at all (even after refreshing the cube list).

Many thanks!

Dear Alex,

see folder 

C:\opt\OpenForisCalc\calc-server\tomcat\webapps\saiku\WEB-INF\classes\saiku-datasources

You may delete unneeded ones. After this refresh cubes in Saiku.

Regards, Lauri

Dear Lauri,

thank you! I understand this works as well for Open Foris Collect, only that the file path would be:

C:\OpenForis\Collect\webapps\saiku\WEB-INF\classes\saiku-datasources

Correct?

Thanks again!

Alex

And again:

yes, it works!! Unneeded cubes in OF Collect can be deleted here:

C:\OpenForis\Collect\webapps\saiku\WEB-INF\classes\saiku-datasources
