CoreFTP server stops working with big logfile

Post by marcel05 »

We are using the Core FTP-server version 1.2 for years. And satisfied.
But the server stops communication when the log files is too big.
In our case the line in the logfile seems to be around 25 million line and size bigger than 768 mb.

So in our case once a month the ftp-server will stop working!!!

Can you arrange to clean up the logfile.
Or can we do that ourselves by settings or configuration?
Restarting coreftp will not create an new lofile.
You have to close down the server, remove the file and restart the coreftp sever again.

for your log filename, use something similar to:

coreftp%Y%m%d.log

This will generate a new log each day. Select the "daily" or "monthly" option in the log settings.
