Error message

There are no entries matching this query. Aborting.

What it means

The audit extension's `clear:logs` (ClearLogsCommand) counts audit_log rows older than the given `--before` date; if none match, the command warns and exits early without deleting anything. It is an informational guard, not a thrown exception.

Solutions

1. Check the audit_log table for existing rows and pick a --before date after the oldest entry
2. Run without --before to use the default cutoff
3. Use --reset if you intend to wipe/disable the whole audit log instead
4. No action needed if the intent was a dry run

Example fix

// before
php flarum clear:logs --before=2020-01-01
// after
php flarum clear:logs --before=2026-01-01

$count = \Flarum\Audit\AuditLog::where('created_at', '<', $beforeDate)->count();
if ($count === 0) { /* nothing to clear — skip or notify */ }

When it happens

Trigger: Running `php flarum clear:logs --before=<date>` (or with default cutoff) when the count of AuditLog rows with created_at < beforeDate is 0.

Common situations: The log table was already cleared, no audit activity exists yet, or the --before date is earlier than every log entry.

Understand the failure class
