[Dxspider-support] Debug files

[Bob Harrison]

About once a month I run out of disk space..... and it seems to be associated with debug files.
 
My debug line in DXVARS is @debug = qw(chan state msg cron connect);
 
In the manual it says
 

2.6 How can I automatically limit the amount of debug logfiles that are stored? 
Use the tmpwatch command. Create a file in /etc/cron.daily/ containing the line ...
/usr/sbin/tmpwatch -f 240 /spider/data/debugRemember to make it executable!
This will limit your debug data down to the last 10 days. 
However, modern versions of DXSpider will do this for you, so this is now probably unnecessary.
I use a modern version of spider but the above doesn't seem to be working, where is the control so I can check its configured correctly
 
 
Thanks de Bob G4UJS
