    From Weatherman@11:1/101 to All on Thu Jun 6 19:34:57 2024

    Just an FYI.. I caught another issue recently that caused all the free disk space on one of my BBS network tossing partitions to hit 100%. I have seen this happen before, but is very rare and not sure what initiated it.

    Basically, the Mystic node log file got massive and was using 47G. Once I deleted it and reset things, everything started working again.

    Oh wow! Did it speed your overall Mystic Hub up as well? My Mystic BBS (The Underground) has been dragging in speed as of late. I'll have to check to see if that is the cause. Personally I'm trying to move it all over to a new PC anyway but that is a good find. Who would have known a text file can get THAT big!

    Yes, I was unable to open the file to see what exactly was going on. All I know is the node1 text file log for Mystic had gone crazy - gone from a few megabytes to 47GB in a day. Something must have been looping.

    Either way, I found the source of the disk space killer, deleted the file, and everything was back to normal.
