Disk space

I just got this from my server:

Drive Warning: /hda2 (/usr) is 88% full

3 days ago it was 78%.

I haven't uploaded anything in that time. What the heck is the /hda2 drive anyway?

Possibly the location of a log file or the mail spool.

I dont know... Logs and mail are usually kept under /var. /usr contains mostly just installed programs shared over that computer...

Which distro are you using?

Are you using a caching system which stores files, and doesn't clean itself out?

SSH into the server

cd /usr/local/apache/domlogs

rm *

"y" to every file.

Go into WHM -> Server Settings, then make the log files be deleted every time tehy are ran.

OK, now I need to find some technical wiz kid to do that for me for a fiver...

Or, do it yourself (he posted instructions, even!).

Yeah, but it sounds boring and I've turned into a technophobe recently...

a technophobe? Already?

I'll do it for £5 :) pm me if you really want.

Incka, if you're running your own server without a maintenance contract on it, then you really should learn. What if the kid who'll do it for a fiver doesn't KNOW what he's doing? (Or will happily compromise your system?)

Although I'm sure chromate isn't that kid :D

Nah, I've got a guy from Estonia who likes Kraftwerk and has long gray hair but is only 18 to do it... And I'm not lieing...

lol, doing it yourself would save money. A penny saved is a dollar made in my books.

Yes I cook my books.. :)

It really doesn't get any easier than the directions I posted...

Yeah, but SSH scares me, I'm sure I could easily ruin my server using it...
