Null values after emptying a log file
Hi,
I have a log file which is constantly being written to by some process. I need to clear that log file on a daily basis. The problem is that when I issue this command: echo "" > logfile.log the file gets filled with nulls thus increasing the size of the file. Is there a way to pause/stop the process, then copy the logfile to some name and then clearing the original logfile, then restarting the paused/stopped process? I am doing all this in a shell script. Thanx Regards 2me |
