Resolved Deleting Error Log File

[Chris Parker]

Can anyone tell me how to delete a log file that is growing as is currently 6gig
I have tried rotating it without success
I have tried restarting Apache
But every time I delete it it reappears

What log do you mean? Have you tried to find a reason why this file grows? Have you tried to configure log rotation for this file and troubleshoot why it doesn't work as expected?

 

[Chris Parker]

It is the error log
I have corrected the reason for the rapid growth but I am left with a 6gig file I cant remove

Try whit:

echo  "" > error_log
