I am having a problem with an EC2 which uses nearly all of the 8GB of storage. I regularly delete log files from the server and files which get created by cronjobs in the users folder (can I turn this off?), but in the past there is always less space after deleting all the files. So somewhere else the EC2 creates files, but I don’t know where.
Does anybody know where I can look for unused files automatically created by the Amazon Linux AMI or apache?
Thanks!
Look in
/var/log, and for Apache they will likely be in/var/log/httpd. I also suggest that you look into logrotate.
