Container log file size

[samcro1967]

After running this image for a few weeks, the container log file has grown to almost 200 GB. I needed to reclaim space so I stopped the container, truncated the log file, limited the log file size, and restarted the container. Not sure if this is normal/expected or if I have something misconfigured.

I added the following to docker compose if anyone else sees a similiar issue.

    logging:
      driver: "json-file"
      options:
        max-size: "10m"
        max-file: "3"

Everything seems to be running normally

That's mad. Is this with debug on or off?

[samcro1967]

Ah, I did have debug enabled. Forgot that I had even enabled it when first setting up. Forgot to disable after I got things running successfully. That is still a lot. Might want to look at using files for logging with file rotation down the road. Maybe a file a day and keep a week's worth of logs or something along those lines. I like the way the arr's do it with separate files for info versus debug versus trace as well.
