Truncate log files

hello forum,
I have an old version of xibo (1.4.2) running just fine :slight_smile: but I think I need to truncate some logs because i’m running out of space on the server.

root@lib-xibo:/var/lib/mysql/xibo# du -sh log.*
20K log.frm
9.4G log.MYD
1.6G log.MYI
root@lib-xibo:/var/lib/mysql/xibo#

I tried to run the maintenance.php script, and it runs for about an hour but didn’t clear or truncate the log in the mysql database.

am I doing something wrong?

well, thank you guys.

I’ve empty the log file using phpmyadmin.

You need to run the maintenance script regularly to keep the number of log messages sensible.

As you’ve found, you can safely truncate the log table at any time.
