Access.log file is getting quite large...
Posted: 05. April 2005 11:00
I've been running a site for around 6 months now and it's going very well. However, my ACCESS.LOG file is getting huge. Every now and again I archive the file away and start from a 0 byte file but the file is getting to over 200 MB in a month.
I use Webalizer which I presume uses ACCESS.LOG so I don't want to just stop the log from being created but I wondered if there are any potential problems having such a big LOG file - or if it is something that I just have to manage.
Is there a max size you think I should let the ACCESS.LOG file get to before archiving it away?
Any thoughts/comments?
