Hi guys,

I am new here first post.

Now i show how to clear all log files with safe. This just clear log files (null) not delete it. DO NOT delete the log files under /var/logs/ or you could get errors.

And now free 10+GB for me… Useful!

Here is the code :slight_smile:

cat /dev/null > /var/log/messages
cat /dev/null > /var/log/openwebmail.log
cat /dev/null > /var/log/maillog

Hi zwreitiger

Welcome to IW forums and thanks for your post.

You can set the log file rotation etc from nodeworx server settings, system I think from memory, and it will keep them to a smaller size\history. Similarly you can set the depth of files, ie debugging, information only etc or you can just turn off logging.

I hope this helps and I’m sorry if I’m wrong.

Many thanks

John
