Log file deletion/rotation problems

[markthegreat]

The log file rotation facility is not working on my Plesk interface. The access_log file is now 11.5Gb and still growing, which is quickly eating up spare resources on my web server.

Furthermore, I cannot delete the file as the tick box besides it is greyed out. How can I quickly delete this stats files and reclaim all this disk space? Please help.

Hello,

1) make sure that Statistics is presented in the list of Crontab job:
# crontab -l | grep statistics

2) Crontab should be running:
# /etc/init.d/cron status

3) You may check Contab log files to find get exact reason why Log rotation is not working.
# less /var/log/cron
