Preventing .log files from gettting too big?

[DY357LX]

Hi all.

I try to encourage my other Admins to clear out the .log files once every 2 weeks or so but it's amazing how often they "forget".

(We often get createVehicle.log files around 100meg and I think that kinda things slows down traders.)

 

Anyway, is there a script I can use to auto-delete them every X days or is there a line in the createVehicle.txt etc files that prevent excessive logging?

 

My createVehicle.txt currently looks like this:
 

//new
5 "SeaGull"
1 "" !"WeaponHolder"
5 "box" !="DebugBoxPlayer_DZ" !"MedBox" !="AmmoBoxSmall_556" !="AmmoBoxSmall_762" !="ItemMatchbox" !="ItemToolbox" !="CardBoardBox" !="FoodBox1" !="FoodBox2" !="FoodBox3" !="LockboxStorageLocked" !="LockboxStorage" !="WeaponHolder_ItemLockbox" !="FoodBox0"
5 "BasicWeapons"
5 "SpecialWeapons"
5 "FunctionsManager"
5 "M_Vikhr_AT"
5 "M_Hellfire_AT"
5 "Logic"
5 "snowman"

Can I change that 1 to a 2? Or will that break things?

 

Thanks.

Use the rotate logs batch file included with the Epoch server files as part of your server startup sequence.  If you set it up right it will rotate the logs for you on every server restart.
