 Server 'log' files - can I delete? A client of mine is hosted with a UK company who only supply 30mb with each account. She has recently received about 10 emails telling her that she has reached her capacity. I've checked the server and it appears that there's a folder called "logs" which has one single file about 29.3mb in size ('access_log'). What is this, and can I delete it, or reduce it? They are calling her trying to get her to upgrade her account for a rediculous fee.  |

| You can safely delete it and apache will recreate it and start again. However a web host only 30mb of space in 2007?? Get her outta there and tell them where to shove it. |

| My web server logs are a LOT bigger than that!! The logs for this site are currently using over 2 gigs! (Yes yes yes I know that's too big - I just forgot to setup cronolog!)
