gives me a huge log file… how can I clear it? … and don’t say “with ‘delete log file’” and not specifying the name of the log file… what comes after “delete log file”? … filex? fileq? logfile_with_secret_name? logfile_without_a_name.somethingyouneverfindoutorjustbyluck?
ok… it seems, that there are no logfiles (almost none) that can be deleted with this command and it seems, that everything goes into the… journal-log (whatever this is, don’t ask me, I’ve no idea how Linux works, but I’m learning quick) … clearing this seems to work with
journalctl --rotate … but need’s a sudo in front (also something I’ve to find out how exactely it works and when it’s needed and what it does) … so
and done… but, I’m sure like this I’ve deleted EVERY log… anyway… as I sayed… for the moment I’m learing and if I’m destroying the system… fine… no problem for me… even when I’m destroying the hardware it’s fine… I’ve still 3 more boxes under the table…
