Apache access log eating too much space on server

[chandrutamilnadu]

Hi,

My server’s Apache access log takes almost full storage every day, and because of that, my server is not working properly.

I don’t want to store access logs on my server. Is there any option to disable it?

Thank you.

Hi @chandrutamilnadu

Create a new Apache template (you can copy the current template you are using)
Example if you are using default Apache template:

cd /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/apache2/
cp default.tpl default-nolog.tpl
cp default.stpl default-nolog.stpl

Remove or comment the directive CustomLog /var/log/%web_system%/domains/%domain%.log combined from default-nolog.tpl and default-nolog.stpl templates.

Assign the new Apache template default-nolog to your domains and rebuild them (assigning the new template from Web UI to your domain should rebuild the domain automatically).

@sahsanu

cd /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/apache2/

Sorry, I wrote the wrong dir /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/apache2/, the right dir for your installation is /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/apache2/php-fpm/

cd /usr/local/hestia/data/templates/web/apache2/php-fpm/
cp default.tpl default-nolog.tpl
cp default.stpl default-nolog.stpl

Remove or comment the directive CustomLog /var/log/%web_system%/domains/%domain%.log combined from default-nolog.tpl and default-nolog.stpl templates.

Assign the new Apache template default-nolog to your domains and rebuild them (assigning the new template from Web UI to your domain should rebuild the domain automatically).
