Okay, so Tiki Central crashed today. I checked into it and it turns out we had ran out of room. This was strange becuase 1 week ago after the site got hacked we had 200 megabytes free. Then I remembered that I stopped automatically deleting the site's log files. Log files keep track of every transaction between the server and browsers that contact it. Well I never paid attention to their size before becuase I was automatically deleting them, but as it turns out, one day's worth of Log files is 20 megabytes! That means that in one day just the reporting of everything going on here is enough to make a text file that is 20 megabytes large. Holy cow. Suffice to say, I won't be keeping log files around for too long. I thought I'd share that number. We had 80,000 visitors last month! ~Hanford |
