log file taking too much space quickly

[GimluCom]

Are there any errors in your logs?

[BlockgenStudio]

maybe but not the error that is major. for time being, is there a way just reduce or turn off the log?

[GimluCom]

Why not correct the error? You may configure it in config/ or setup a cron job to delete logs every hour/day.

@BlockgenStudio you can re-configure log rotation in the codebase

Log rotation config looks like and it is configured for each file individually:

blockscout/apps/explorer/config/prod.exs

Line 16 in 81179f9

rotate: %{max_bytes: 52_428_800, keep: 19}

There is no env var to manage log rotation config yet. If you use pre-built image of the Blockscout, you could configure log rotation outside the app via cron as Gimlu noticed.
