Log2Ram

[FugginOld]

Hello.....for some reason Log2ram keeps filling up my rootfs...but I love the rest of the utility. How can I install ProxMenux without Log2Ram? I can't find the option anywhere.

Hi, great to hear from you. You can uninstall log2ram from the Utilities Uninstallation menu inside the Post-Installation section.

However, could you explain a bit more about the issue or the behavior you’re not happy with? That way, I can check whether something needs to be adjusted.

Thank you for the response. My proxmox would just become unresponsive, that I would have to reboot to free up ram to be able to remove anything.

Here's some snippets of my logs and output of df -h:

same for me - logroate does not work with log2ram

[MacRimi]

The next version will include an option to update the functions that are improved after installation.

These improvements in the log2ram and logrotate functions should fix the misalignments in log rotation.
