I have around 40 servers running ISPConfig. On every server I have an issue where there are many ispconfig_access_log_* files. These files can be anywhere from 20MB to 100MB depending on the server. Because of this, my disks are filling up. How can I configure ISPConfig to only save 1 ispconfig_access_log file?
ISPConfig normally deletes these files after 2 days. 1) Which ISPConfig version do you use? 2) Have you uncommented or modified any of the logs or stats cronjobs?

Which value have you set for the access log purge days in the server settings? The default is 2, if you have set 0 instead, then no files get deleted.
Where do I find this? I logged into ISPConfig and checked under Management > Server > Settings but I don't see purge setting.
It has been 11 days since I've had a response to this. I need to get this figured out. This is causing my disks to fill up daily on over 35 servers!
Unfortunately there's no such setting in ISPConfig 2. But maybe you can write a shell script that is called by cron that deletes all logs that are older than n days (using the find command). There's an example of how to do this in this tutorial: http://www.howtoforge.com/back_up_mysql_dbs_without_interruptions
