Huge Error Logs

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

 

I have some huge error and access logs. I use Plesk, it had a delete option for the access logs after I download them. I guess they will be created again once downloaded?

 

The error logs do not have a delete option, If I locate these on the server and delete, will these be re-created also?

 

Many thanks

I don't know about plesk, however most *nix systems have a logrotate script which gets run as part of a cron job. The logrotate script compresses old log files so they only take up a fraction of the space. Logrotate also removes very old log files.
