RE: [cobalt-users] Need To Find The Fix For This

What you can do is firstly move your /var/log directory to a less
congested drive, e.g. /home

so now your logs are sitting in /home/log
then go to the /var and create a symlink like this:
ln -s /home/log/ /var/log

You'll need to restart syslog in case it moans a little, by doing
/etc/rc.d/init.d/syslog restart

hopefully that helps.

Subject: [cobalt-users] Need To Find The Fix For This


Hey all:
 
This morning I ran into that oh so fun error message via email:
 
errors occured while rotating /var/log/httpd/access
 
And I also got emails that my disk is almost out of space.
 
 
I've been searching the archives, because I KNOW that someone posted a
fix to this not too long ago.  I think it involved creating a directory
somewhere else and creating a symlink so there wasn't heavy disk usage
on the /var partition?  Is this correct?  Im sitting here with my active
monitor going nuts and it shows that all my sites have UNLIMITED Allowed
MB and they all show 4.8 MB Used and 100% Usage!  I checked my
/var/log/httpd/access file and I think it's only 4MB in size.  So, any
help is VERY Appreciated, even a link to that past post from a few weeks
ago.
 
Thanks,
Robert
