I flushed the access.log and everything is now ok

I'm scared the problem occur again ... I verify the archiving process and everything seems ok (the access.log file is compressed and renamed every week). The file was 2.4Go large, is it too big ? How can i told squid to use a larger file ? My HDD is 40Go large and only 13% was used.

If anyone can give me some ideas ...

Thanks,

benja

Any chance you're using my SARG contrib ?
It has a bug, it doesn't rotate access.log.
Pierluigi Miranda has found and corrected the bug. I'll release a new SARG contrib soon.
