My /var/log/mail.err is very big due to a misconfiguration error.
However, I can't simply remove it because it is "owned" by rsyslogd:
[...]
So, how to properly empty log files?
Hi,
If you dont want to :
- restart syslog
- keep the information in the file
you can "truncate" the file with the folowing bash line :
> /var/log/mail.err
or the following portable line :
echo > /var/log/mail.err
