I've moved this from a previous post:
current status for maintianing our own access_log is as follows:
The site owner:
1) can't delete the access_log
2) can't over-write the access_log (which we could do yesterday)
3) a temp file was created (but it still grows and the access_log that did eventually show 0, didn't do anything)
Their access_log is now at about 50MB since the rollover. At this rate, their system will stop functioning in the next day or so, due to exceeding the 650 MB limit. Support has written one question,, if I tried to use a script or crontab. I stated in my initial requrest that I did and, I even included the crontab script (guess they didn't read the whole request - and, jumped to conclusion).
Primary issue is that a site owner can't maintain their own logfile system. That is not acceptable. Since the logfile has grown,, webstats stopped after the 0422AM PDT update. Awstats is still updating so far. There is a crontab limit.. just don't know what that is.
The whole thing is not acceptable. More control of our logs is necessary.
