Deleting Stats logs daily in cPanel
Deleting Stats logs is something that is enabled on most servers but one does encounter servers with a full domlogs directory. To delete those logs you can follow these steps.
First step is to check how large are the apache domain logs, you can check those on a cPanel server by running “du -hs /usr/local/apache/domlogs”. If the size of those logs is large, then you may want as much free space as possible. Login to WHM and click Tweak Settings. Within that menu click “Delete each domain’s access logs after stats run” which will enable this and click ‘Save’. Now at the end of the stats run every night it will wipe out the directory so you should not have the logs grow very large, unless of course your server is very busy.
