clear old log files from /var/log

I have about 4gb of old log files on /var/log mainly on /var/log/apache2 the files like access.log.(number).gz are taking a lot of space
I thought ISPConfig would remove the files older than a month but its removing just the logs under the clients log folder and not the main linux logs
So can I manually remove the old files under /var/log?
Is there any way I could set up a cron to clear the files older the a month?

 

You should use logrotate to handle your logs (compress, delete...)

 

but in this thread https://www.howtoforge.com/communit...rotation-not-configured-in-ispconfig-3.37072/
till says that if I use logrotate it will conflict with ISPConfig

 

you can use this cron to remove log older 180 days

Code:

#!/bin/sh

find /var/log/ -type f -mtime +180 -delete

 

But only the logs in doc-root/log and /var/log/ispconfig/httpd/, but not in /Var/log/apache2 or /var/log/mail.log.

 

ok i'll set up a cron to remove the logs thanks!
