Re: Huge merovingian.log after update

Hai Lynn, The huge merovingian.log file can be safely removed as the following: mv /<path-to-your-dbfarm>/merovingian.log /<path-to-your-dbfarm>/merovingian.log.old kill -HUP $(cat /<path-to-your-dbfarm>/merovingian.pid) i.e. you first move the huge merovingian.log out of the way and tell monetdbd to start with a new log. If you now run "ls -alh /<path-to-your-dbfarm>", you should see a new merovingian.log. Now you can safely remove the old one: "rm /<path-to-your-dbfarm>/merovingian.log.old” Regards, Jennie

One more note. I just tailed the log and see thousands of message that look like this: Does this imply some endless bad loop of someone trying to access the db?

Is there a setting that limits the size of the meringian.log file?

Thanks - Lynn

HI all –

A week or so ago we ran an upgrade to the lastest monetdb June-2020 patch. Our db was 2 patches old.

While the log showed no specific problems, the upgrade effected our databases in that 2 of them would crash when they were accessed, and the third one (the largest one) I could access but could not see any tables.

I ended up “destroying” all the dbs and recreating them fomr the saved binary files.

Now, we are getting disk full messages (the db is only read – no one is adding to it). I look at the file sizes and there is a huge mervingian.log file:

Is it a problem if I delete this file? What will it hurt? Should I “tail” it and save the end of it? Please advise.
